Please, don't submit this.
That's a workaround, our issue here is: why h_errno TLS support is not 
working.
I'm investigating it right now.

If we can't soon come with the right fix, we then could swtich back to 
a global non thread-safe h_errno version, but I can't see why we 
couldn't fix it.
How optimistic am I tonight!?
