Ok I see that now in cthreads.pp. Do you need to call EndThread from the thread callback when calling BeginThread? I thought the thread cleaned itself up when the function terminated but I may be wrong about that. Pthreads at least doesn’t appear to require you to detach the thread but maybe it’s leaking memory then.
