> Shell.runCommand starts an error stream handling thread and normally joins
> with it before closing the error stream. However if parseExecResult throws
> an exception (e.g.: like Stat.parseExecResult does for FileNotFoundException)
> then the error thread is not joined and the error stream can be closed before
> the error stream handling thread is finished. This causes the error stream
> handling thread to log an exception backtrace for a "normal" situation.
