What about that __thread storage class?

class Device {
protected:
     static __thread CUdevice dev;       // This thread's GPU
     static __thread int   gpu_id = 0;   // This thread's GPU id
     static __thread int rev_major;      // The major revision number
     static __thread int rev_minor;      // The minor revision number
     static __thread size_t totalGM;     // Total global memory
     static __thread string dev_name;    // Device name
     static __thread CUdevprop prop;     // This device's properties
     static __thread CUcontext ctx;      // This device's context
     static __thread isValid = false;    // Is the device alive


Does this combination of static and __thread work?
By the way, are static class members treated as "classic global data"?


D 2.030:
classic global storage now defaults to TLS (Thread Local Storage).

D 2.013:
Added __thread storage class for thread local storage. This is for 
testing purposes only to check out the machinery in the back end. The 
front end design of this will change.
