I have the same pattern in my framework and I solved it with
a simple barrier (however I incour in an extra syncronization
not needed, indeed the created thread body has to wait has well
that the thread creator reaches the barrier.

In my very case the setup *has* to be run by the thread because
in my case the setup does:

1) cpu affinity
2) thread priority change
