3) Use a modified version of eval that polls for a thread termination  
request.

I'd actually go along with John's suggestion to flush thread- 
terminate!, for the reasons already cited. At that
point, we could no longer claim SRFI-18 compliance, but that's a very  
small price to pay. Just rename the
unit `threads' or something. Maybe this is a change that can be made  
at Version 4?
