Test program makes a thread and loops forever

1) Run the attached test program which generates a thread that loops forever

2) Run 'busybox ps -T'. Note how the thread generated in the test program is
just listed as './main' rather than its real thread name 'DansThread'. This
would make it difficult to analyse an application with multiple threads because
the real name of each individual thread would not be shown.

ie. 'busybox ps -T' currently shows:

./main
./main
./main
./main


The fixed version of 'busybox ps -T' would show:

DansThread
FredsThread
FooThread
BarThread
