        ILThreadJoin to miss a signal and deadlock.
        
+       * engine/engine.h: Added "isFinalizerThread" field to ILExecThread
+       so finalizer threads can be treated specially when the process
+       shutsdown.
+       
+       * engine/heap.c: Object finalizers are now responsible for
+       registering the finalizer thread with the engine.
+ 
+       * engine/process.c: On process shutdown, non-finalizer threads
+       (both foreground and background) are now destroyed before the
+       finalization thread performs its last run.
+       
+       * support/hb_gc: Improve startup time by delay-creating the
+       finalizer thread.  Decoupled the GC code from the engine so that
+       it needs to know nothing about the execution engine.  Added more
+       comments.
+       
+       * support/thread.c: Add support for thread cleanup handlers.
