Task threads are not killed at exit

But if nobody handles that exception (e.g. the debugger), then the kernel 
shouldn't kill the task? This happens on all O.S.s I've tried (linux, *BSD, 
windows, etc.) :)

Still no joy on my side :(, I comment line 22 (the one which caused 
the page fault), so the main function exists after 5 seconds but I still
see the  "Test thread alive" message printed on my screen every
second. I'm using Fiasco/L4Re from rev 56 for x86.
