"TCG CPUs" -- notice the case for the plural "s".

Command with dubious intention -- are you working around some kind of 
LIBPATH priority problem? TLS shouldn't be involved at this level, yet I 
remotely remember that library search paths similar to "/usr/lib/tls" 
were a thing long ago...

I'm afraid this README would require some re-writing due to the amount 
of Chinglish involved, but that's possibly okay after merging. (I don't 
have the time to rewrite this for you currently, so just a mild rant for 
now.)
