in reply to Event module and threads/fork segfault on Win32

Alternatively, is it really necessary to join the thr once it's done it's work?
Why not use thr->detach() instead?

Cheers
Chris

    The script needs to join() because some threads should run upon successful completion of others. So that's the need to know when they end and collect their exit statuses.
