Re: [libmicrohttpd] Setting thread attributes

[Christian Grothoff]

1: If you use MHD's threaded modes, MHD 'insists' on creating the
threads itself. If you use the 'external' event loop (indeed with
MHD_NO_FLAG), then MHD runs (only) in the thread you call it from, and
only when you call MHD_run().

2: indeed.
