If I'm not mistaken, C global variables should be marked with __gshared for
them to work correctly, since without that, they're end up being thread-local
per D's type system.

http://dlang.org/interfaceToC.html

does not mention __gshared at all. It should explain that __gshared should be
used on C global variable declarations in order for them not be treated as
thread-local by the compiler.
