[Pthreads-hackers] stack for main thread

Hi!

If the thread specific data (tsd) will be accessed through a
per-thread register (%gs segment on x86) I see no reason for
changing stacks for the main thread (i.e., when initilizing the
thread library).

cthreads change the main stack because all stacks are of the
same size -- same goes for Hurd threadvars.

Are there any reasons for changing the initial stack when using
per-thread registers?
