Hello, 

   I'm coding with pthreads, but the behavior of pthread_key_delete
is strange. When I use pthread_key_delete, and I do not wait for the
automatic deallocation of thread specific data, I receive a strange
warning:

Thread 8053800 has exited with leftover thread-specific data after \
4 destructor iterations

   ¿Is this a mistake in the code or a standard warning in FreeBSD
pthreads?

   The code bellow can be compiled with and do not use the
pthread_key_delete routine:

   gcc -Wall -Wextra -pthread -lpthread -o key key.c

   But if pthread_key_delete is used, compiling the code with:

   gcc -Wall -Wextra -DPTHR_WARNS -pthread -lpthread -o key key.c

   I get warning message...
