I haven't tested, but I suspect this is less likely to
cause a problem, because in a real QEMU run we'll only
kill these threads and cause the memory corruption at
the end of the run when QEMU is exiting anyway. The problem
in the test case is that we kill threads and corrupt memory,
and then continue to use the same process for the next test
in the set, which then crashes later as a result of the
memory corruption.
