When a thread has died, `thread-last-error' reports the reason. But
there is no possibility to cleanup this last error, which makes it
inconvenient to check for errors in further threads. A function
`cleanup-thread-last-error' or alike would be helpful.

Or this functionality exist already, and I haven't been able to discover.
