It does not look like it's supported by Cygwin's gcc:

$ gcc -v

void f(void)

  void *p = __builtin_thread_pointer();
}

$ gcc -c test-builtin-thread-pointer.c
test-builtin-thread-pointer.c: In function ‘f’:

On Ubuntu 24.04 this program compiles without warnings.

It looks like the gcc configure script checks for TLS here: https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob;f=gcc/configure.ac;h=8fab93c9365496062583c5bd8ace402c8a797817;hb=HEAD#l3846, by running some code through the assembler. I would guess that doesn't work on Cygwin.
