From @jdhedden

This is a bug report for perl from jdhedden@​cpan.org,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.40 running under perl 5.22.2.

The attached patch upgrades 'threads' to version 2.09.

The patch updates the 'threads' POD to document that
detached threads which are still running when the main
thread exits will cause Perl's global destruction phase not
to run.

The patch does not contain any functional changes.

+=item Detached threads and global destruction
+
+If the main thread exits while there are detached threads which are still
+running, then Perl's global destruction phase is not executed because
+otherwise certain global structures that control the operation of threads and
+that are allocated in the main thread's memory may get destroyed before the
+detached thread is destroyed.

+If you are using any code that requires the execution of the global
+destruction phase for clean up (e.g., removing temp files), then do not use
+detached threads, but rather join all threads before exiting the program.
