+Subject: [PATCH] mbuffer: don't cancel ReaderThr.
+
+joinSenders is called after ReaderThr has been joined, which makes the
+pthread_cancel call in cancelAll undefined behavior and a case of
+use-after-free. Since the thread will already have been joined in main
+by the time joinSenders is called, there is no need to cancel it, so
+that call can simply be removed.
+
+Furthermore, we don't have to account for situations where pthread_join
+can fail, because this program doesn't generate them. If there were
+other threads which tried to join readerThr at the same time, a
+successful pthread_join call should also set Status=0, so pthread_cancel
+isn't called. However, that isn't necessary.
