Summary:  Can't create threads from --eval command-line option.

Original Submission:  I've written a server that I would like to start 
automatically when MIT Scheme starts.  I'm trying to automate this using the 
--eval command-line option, but the thread that the server starts seems to exit 
right away -- or at least to get no time slices.  The same thread, started from 
the REPL, works just fine.

I've tried a simpler example that just starts an infinite output loop, with the 
same results.  See the attached file for an example.  I've also tried 
experimenting with the first argument to `create-thread' and with removing the 
use of `detach-thread,' but without success.

I'm trying to figure out why --eval has this behavior, but haven't had any 
success.  I'd be grateful for any hints.  I'll keep working on this in any case.

Thanks!
