Subject: [PATCH] Wait for already running threads if a thread creation
 failed.

On memory-constrained systems (like cgroups limited processes)
thread creation often fails.

The code needs to wait for already running threads on error path;
otherwise these threads can access deallocated memory
(and cause a segfault or another crash).
