I haven't tested, but I suspect this is less likely to cause a problem, because in a real QEMU run we'll only kill these threads and cause the memory corruption at the end of the run when QEMU is exiting anyway. The problem in the test case is that we kill threads and corrupt memory, and then continue to use the same process for the next test in the set, which then crashes later as a result of the memory corruption. thanks -- PMM
