*
* Given:
*
* 1: Applications are not required to clear keys in all
* threads before calling pthread_key_delete().
* 2: Clearing pointers without running destructors is a
* memory leak.
* 3: The pthread_key_delete() function is expressly forbidden
* to run any destructors.
*
* Option 1: Make this function effectively a no-op and
* prohibit key reuse. This is a possible resource-exhaustion
* problem given that we have a static storage area for keys,
* but having a non-static storage area would make
* pthread_setspecific() expensive (might need to realloc the
* TSD array).
*
* Option 2: Ignore the specified behavior of
* pthread_key_create() and leave the old values. If an
* application deletes a key that still has non-NULL values in
* some threads... it's probably a memory leak and hence
* incorrect anyway, and we're within our rights to let the
* application lose. However, it's possible (if unlikely) that
* the application is storing pointers to non-heap data, or
* non-pointers that have been wedged into a void pointer, so
* we can't entirely write off such applications as incorrect.
* This could also lead to running (new) destructors on old
* data that was never supposed to be associated with that
* destructor.
*
* Option 3: Follow the specified behavior of
* pthread_key_create(). Either pthread_key_create() or
* pthread_key_delete() would then have to clear the values in
* every thread's slot for that key. In order to guarantee the
* visibility of the NULL value in other threads, there would
* have to be synchronization operations in both the clearer
* and pthread_getspecific(). Putting synchronization in
* pthread_getspecific() is a big performance lose. But in
* reality, only (buggy) reuse of an old key would require
* this synchronization; for a new key, there has to be a
* memory-visibility propagating event between the call to
* pthread_key_create() and pthread_getspecific() with that
* key, so setting the entries to NULL without synchronization
* will work, subject to problem (2) above. However, it's kind
* of slow.
*
* Note that the argument in option 3 only applies because we
* keep TSD in ordinary memory which follows the pthreads
* visibility rules. The visibility rules are not required by
* the standard to apply to TSD, so this arguemnt doesn't
* apply in general, just to this implementation.

* [*] That is, unfortunately, not what the standard

* specifying that "the implementation clears the

* was deleted. Nobody noticed, and the standard was approved
* with the error. So the standard says (by omission) that if
* you want to write a portable application using
* thread-specific data, that will not hang on thread
* termination, you must call pthread_setspecific within your
* destructor function to change the value to NULL. This would
* be silly, and any serious implementation of Pthreads will
* violate the standard in this respect. Of course, the
* standard will be fixed, probably by the 1003.1n amendment
* (assorted corrections to 1003.1c-1995), but that will take
