Changes (by simonmar):

  * status:  new => closed
  * resolution:  => fixed


Comment:

 I think this is now fixed

  * In a test program with no `hs_init/hs_exit` I see 2 thread handles open
 at the end of main
  * After calling `hs_init/hs_exit`, with 7.2.1 I see 5 thread handles
  * with these patches, we're back to 2 handles open after `hs_exit`.  So I
 think all the leaks are plugged.

 I don't know how to make an automatic test case.  If you can make a
 program to test this, please attach it to the ticket and we'll put it in
 the test suite.
