Doesn't the "initial exec" model require the user to run the executable with LD_PRELOAD=your.so or linking against your.so (DT_NEEDED)? eg would it work with a Python extension module which is dlopen'd at runtime?

It depends on the amount of TLS and the number of objects that do this, and the C library. In glibc, we have a small static TLS reservation dedicated for use by dlopen of shared objects with initial-exec.
