+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1080656 +++

Description of problem:
When you have a statically linked binary you can't access the tls data through gdb

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
All. This problem exists in 6.4, 6.5, rhel7, F20 and even the upstream trunk version GDB

How reproducible:
always everywhere


Steps to Reproduce:
sierra648{jdelsign}82: gcc -g -o tls tls.c -pthread -static
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.4.7/../../../../lib64/libpthread.a(libpthread.o): In function `sem_open':
(.text+0x764d): warning: the use of `mktemp' is dangerous, better use `mkstemp'
sierra648{jdelsign}83: gdb tls
GNU gdb (GDB) Red Hat Enterprise Linux (7.2-60.el6_4.1)
...
Reading symbols from /g/g0/jdelsign/tls...done.
(gdb) b 12
Breakpoint 1 at 0x400511: file tls.c, line 12.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /g/g0/jdelsign/tls 
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
[New Thread 0x2aaaaacac700 (LWP 6735)]
thread_local_p: & == 00002aaaaacac6c0, . == 00002aaaaacabd1c, * == 1
[Switching to Thread 0x2aaaaacac700 (LWP 6735)]

Breakpoint 1, start_routine (arg=0x1) at tls.c:12
12        return arg;

Actual results:
(gdb) p thread_local_p
Cannot find executable file `/g/g0/jdelsign/tls' in dynamic linker's load module list

Expected results:
It print's the variable
