Last month I continued looking into race conditions in threads and
threads::shared. I have now reached the point where the threads-related
test suite can run cleanly under `valgrind --tool=helgrind`. But there
is still an occasional crash in blocks.t when run repeatedly for many
hours in parallel on 20 terminals, which I am currently working on. I'm
hopeful that once that is fixed, the branch will be ready to push.
Summary:
* 33:35 GH #24258 dist/threads/t/free.t: Rare test failure in debugging build on FreeBSD
Total:
* 33:35 (HH:MM)
