2.6 is in the works, as you said, but has not reached a state where it
is usable on all supported platforms, so I'm stuck with 2.4 for the
time being.

So, if I have read the thread correct so far the behaviour that
every thread gets it's own pid is to be expected. Is the "thread
not killed on exec()" behaviour expected and correct, too, or is
that a bug?

Thanks.
