I wouldn't worry about that. I think the combinations of things a
thread can block on will make it too hard to be sure a deadlock is
occurring. There might even be some weird apparent deadlock that's
meant to be broken by a signal handler cancelling one thread or
something.

Yep, I think that's friendliest.
