Thanks!  And here's the corresponding patch for master.  It's slightly
different, because scm_join_thread_timed in master allows for the join
attempt timing out and should return a special timeout value in that
case.  Also I had to fix another problem, wait-condition-variable
leaving asyncs blocked, before I could reproduce the
scm_join_thread_timed issue in threads.test, so a patch for that
problem is attached too.

Regards,
      Neil
