Fine, I guess, but I'd mention it in the commit message. The new QemuThreadData member @name is non-null only between thread creation and thread name setting, unlike the other members under /* Passed to win32_start_routine. */ Worth a comment? Keep it alive until the thread dies? Entirely up to you. Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <[email protected]>
