I'm going to start working on the user-side of the new threads
library. I need to be able to quickly get at the current KSE
(or perhaps KSEG). Can we define a register on each architecture
that should not be used by FreeBSD ABI compliant applications?
The register doesn't have to be 32 bits or larger, just large
enough to hold the maximum number of KSEs (or KSEGs).
