-- check that we can still kill a thread that is blocked on
-- delivering an exception to us.

-- NB. this test is non-deterministic in the threaded2 way since 6.14,
-- because throwTo is now always interruptible, so the main thread's
-- killThread can be legitimately interrupted by the child thread's
-- killThread, rather than the other way around.  This happens because
-- the child thread is running on another processor, so the main
-- thread's throwTo is blocked waiting for a response, and while
-- waiting it is interruptible.
