The pthread_self manpage says that it's not safe to compare
pthread_t's using == and advises to use pthread_equal for this.

When you create a non-joinable thread then you won't call
virThreadJoin on it and you''ll leak the handle. Therefore, we should
use _beginthread here instead of _beginthreadex when creating a
non-joinable thread, because _endthread will close the thread's handle
when the thread's function returns.

If virThreadJoin is not called on virThreadPtr initialized by
virThreadSelf then the duplicated handle leaks.

Therefore, this definitely leaks a handle per call.

This might create really subtle double-CloseHandle bugs when you call
it twice on the same virThreadPtr or call it accidentally on an
non-joinable thread that already exited and _endthread had close the
handle. In both cases Windows might already reused the closed handle
and the second call to CloseHandle might close something completely
unrelated.
