But, if the thread exits cleanly by calling apr_thread_exit() or has its own private SMS (I don't care which, but I think storing the SMS in the apr_thread_t object is a bit unclean), it'll return all of its resources with properly registered cleanups when the per-thread SMS is destroyed as the thread exits cleanly. Again, I'm just not seeing what the problem is here. -- justin
