/* This thread spawns a number of outer threads, equal to the arena
   limit.  The outer threads run a loop which start and join two
   different kinds of threads: the first kind allocates (attaching an
   arena to the thread; malloc_first_thread) and waits, the second
   kind waits and allocates (wait_first_threads).  Both kinds of
   threads exit immediately after waiting.  The hope is that this will
   exhibit races in thread termination and arena management,
   particularly related to the arena free list.  */
