I'm not really troubled by this much, but I want to understand it.
Apparently there's no way to carry a running thread across a fork.
This is fine -- no one should try that anyway IMO.
My concerns are:
1. The phrasing makes it sound as though the thread in the parent
process is terminated when a fork happens. This, fortunately,
is not the case.
2. Sometimes I get this message when I think there should be no
threads still running. Is it possible that the thread is a
"false positive" or something? Is there such a thing as a
zombie thread?
3. And finally, is there a way to disable this specific warning?
Thanks,
Hal
