IEEE Std 1003.1-2001/Cor 2-2004, item XBD/TC2/D6/26 is applied, adding
pthread_t to the list of types that are not required to be arithmetic
types, thus allowing pthread_t to be defined as a structure.
It would be better to leave pthread_t alone and not interpret it:
if (priv->timer_tid) {
pthread_cancel(priv->timer_tid);
pthread_join(priv->timer_tid, &status);
}
priv->timer_tid = 0;
