SF bug #516372: test_thread: unhandled exc. in thread
Fix exit races in test_thread.py and test_threaded_import.py. I suspect the bug is provokable only under Linux (where child threads seem to get lots of cycles before they get killed after the main thread exits), or on multi-processor machines running other OSes. Bugfix candidate.
