Photon is a minimalistic multi-threaded fiber scheduler and

All Linux/OSX versions of Photon up to v0.10.0 had a bug in
creation of event loop thread, by mistake thread_id was
overwritten by error code of pthread_create. Some libc use
pointers as tid therefore causing prompt crash on exit, others
(glibc) failed harmlessly.
Thanks to the Russian D language community for bringing up the
issue.
