I've already pointed out elsewhere that the documentation of _beginthreadex explicitly says that the calling convention of the function pointer must be __stdcall. It does not mention WINAPI. Therefore, I think that these two changes are not correct:

> +static unsigned WINAPI run_thread(void *data)
You should s/WINAPI/__stdcall/.
