This is very hard to debug remotely.  Based on the output, it looks like the thread local storage specifier support from the compiler might have a bug somewhere.  We may need to add a --disable-tls-specifier to configure to cover these cases.  I probably also need to strengthen the AX_TLS macro further.

The only bit of googling that looks similar appears to be related to broken __thread support as well: http://lists.eecs.utk.edu/pipermail/perfapi-devel/2006-August/000460.html

(look for "pseudo function" if you want to see the similar error)
