I finally got back to this and did some experiments of my own: even the
latest Illumos ld doesn't implement -z relax=transtls, neither has it
fixed the underlying bug, so it's useless for 64-bit Illumos/x86.
The following patch checks for those conditions (ld support for -z
relax=transtls or gld in use) and only enables libphobos if they are
met.
I had to move the whole enable_libphobos/LIBPHOBOS_SUPPORTED block down
in configure.ac so it's able to use the results of the augmented
DRUNTIME_OS_LINK_SPEC.
While I didn't test the patch on Illumos (gcc builds inside a VM are
slow), I tried it on Solaris 10/x86 with gas/ld and gas/gld (and an
improved version of the patch for PR d/88238) where it behaved as
expected. I've also included a previous version in a Solaris 11/x86
bootstrap.

* m4/druntime/os.m4 (DRUNTIME_OS_LINK_SPEC): Only use -z
relax=transtls if linker supports it.

(x86_64-*-solaris2.* | i?86-*-solaris2.*): Only
mark supported with either gld or ld -z relax=transtls.
