Comment (by viboes):

 Replying to [comment:8 Andrew Molyneux <andrew.molyneux@…>]:
 > I don't think there does have to be a direct operation on the thread -
 the thread can just end normally (by returning from the function), which
 unless I'm very much mistaken makes it non-joinable. This could happen at
 any time, so I believe the code committed in revision 81270 has a race
 condition.

 No. I thread that finish normally is still joinable. From where are you
 deducing this?
