+Summary: Errors stopping background threads
+
+When an application ends, the runtime tries to stop the background
+threads using the thread abort signal. This is a source of problems
+since the thread may handle the signal after the application domain has
+been disposed.
+
+I'm attaching a patch. Before aborting a background, it sets the
+StopRequested state, which avoids throwing the Abort exception when the
+abort signal is handled. The patch also makes the main thread to wait for
+the background threads to be actually stopped. Any objection?
