I didn't try the complete deluxe debugging experience, but the program
at least ran correctly.

I am using gdb 5.0, i have tried others; the problem from my perspective,
though, is that in a just world i HAVEN'T created 30 or so threads -- I
have created 2. that zombie problem is a major obstacle.

and am readying my baseball bat to use on the first person that says "why
would you ever want to destroy a thread? just create 10 and keep them
around."
