Comment:

 On second thoughts I'll leave the ticket open until it's fully fixed.  I
 don't expect to fix it properly in 6.4.2, though - the best chance for a
 complete fix is in the HEAD with the threaded RTS.  As far as I'm aware,
 in the HEAD's threaded RTS, all threads should shut down properly at exit
 except those currently blocked in foreign calls.
