How does killThread work with FFI calls? What happens at the low
level when a thread is blocked on an FFI call and received a
KillThread exception? Does it exit immediately via some GHC magic or
is the exception caught when the FFI call returns?
The latter.
Does this change if I kill a thread that's blocked on I/O in a
threaded runtime?
Does it get cleaned up immediately?
