Comment:

 a more standard approach would be to add a shell-jobs-like interface for
 ghci (i.e., ':jobs' or ':get-thread-ids \ids->..' as a way to get a list
 of all running threads, for further treatment using the existing thread
 interfaces). then one could write a reaper, or other code analysing the
 current thread structure for debugging purposes.
