#3937: Cannot killThread in listen/accept on Windows threaded runtime

    Reporter:  guest    |       Owner:                
        Type:  bug      |      Status:  new           
    Priority:  normal   |   Component:  Runtime System
     Version:  6.12.1   |    Keywords:                
          Os:  Windows  |    Testcase:                
Architecture:  x86      |     Failure:  Runtime crash 
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 The killThread is not able to kill threads accepting socket connections on
 Windows.

 Run attached file either in GHCi:

 {{{
 runghc.exe ListenOn.hs
 }}}


 or compile threaded:


 {{{
 ghc --make -threaded ListenOn.hs
 }}}


 Resulting binary hangs.

 Expected behavior: should finish without problems.

 Non-threaded runtime produces expected behavior. Seems to work correctly
 on Linux.

 Affected: ghc-6.10.4 and ghc-6.12.1.
