If you can produce a reasonably small failing program, that doesn't involve foreign threads (as before, we've got no handle on those), attach it to a new bug report on SourceForge. If I can reproduce it in core Python, I'll find a way to fix it; else it's unique to ActiveState's distro, and they'll have to tackle it.

I think he mentioned it was a daemon thread, and those are not stopped -- they are let run just like foreign threads. I still believe in my theory which I posted earlier today.
