This is a good change. It is a severe omission that the handle was not closed. (But I still have to test the patch.)

I don't know which cases this mental note wants to help. Assuming that the [win232_]pthread_ API is used correctly, this error cannot happen (WAIT_ABANDONED can only happen when WaitForSingleObject is called on a mutex object).

Good.
