Move thread check into Parrot_exit()

Reported by: coke Owned by: whiteknight
Priority: trivial Milestone:
Component: core Version: master
Severity: low Keywords: API
Cc: Language:
Patch status: Platform: all

Description

In src/exceptions.c there is the todo item:

"XXX this check should better be in Parrot_exit"

Move the check and make sure everything works afterwards. We probably need
a wee bit of discussion on list to ensure that this is the thing to do.

I'm not going to touch this ticket for now. The threading system is both known to be broken in various ways, and is undergoing a redesign. The behavior in die_from_exception() is probably very bad, but it isn't being used and there aren't any error reports from it so I think we can let sleeping dogs lay until we are ready to deal with it.
