So, here the feedback.

Additional testing showed that increasing the TLS_TCB_SIZE is not 
enough. I have the below snippet which lets me build world/kernel and do 
some portmaster updates.

If I use TLS_TCB_SIZE in calculate_first_tls_offset I get a system where 
I can login, but when I try to run 'portmaster' with arguments I get 
'operator expected' on a option which works on other archs.

Putting in round(8, align) instead of TLS_TCB_SIZE makes portmaster work 
again.

And if I leave TLS_TCB_SIZE with 8, and only bring back round(8, align) 
is also not sufficient.

I rebuild a few things again and then I propose the below for -CURRENT 
to re@. Unless someone else has a better idea.

Regards,
Andreas
