I don't see how that's possible unless you are linking something  
wrong ... if objc_thread_detach() returns NULL then NSThread cannot  
work ... since it is based on objc_thread_detach() and will raise an  
exception if that returns NULL (since NULL is the error return from  
that function ... not a great piece of design, but it's what the objc  
runtime provides).
