In that case, you shouldn't be subject to any kind of race conditions. 
But we can't make the library/language based on this assumption. Your 
case is the exceptional case.

I think it's going to be difficult to impossible to prevent people from 
using TLS in destructors anyway. It can probably be a guideline more 
than a compiler error.
