fixes #1578
The cleanup bypass of the CAS losers might have been a merge victim when I picked up the PR again in February; this was certainly the idea that only the winner cleans up.
Maybe let's stay somewhere at SDK 24-26 in #1572, merge this first, and then merge this change from master into your branch.
I think the basic idea behind the analysis is sound, even if the explanation around the mutex where the threads are stuck seems very handwavy. I think this is just a symptom, and the actual cause has more to do with how re-raising from within signal handlers is handled vs. what happens when a fresh signal from the kernel arrives.
However, if we are lucky, it loosens the contention enough for our process to terminate; in that case, we should see the behavior in the previously affected platform versions.
