Subject: bug#73131: 28.2; Yielded threads get killed on C-g
Date: Sun, 8 Sep 2024 12:08:00 -0400

When using the Emacs cooperative threading system in a new project, I
noticed that calling C-g results in quitting the background thread I
create, even when those threads are yielded.

Sending this as a bug report per Eli Zaretskii's mention that it may not
be expected behavior
(https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/1fbkkii/comment/lm3boja/).

Repro recipe:
- emacs -Q
- `C-x 3` and run `list-threads` in the new window, then return to the
older window
- `M-:` `(make-thread (lambda () (cl-loop while t do (progn
(thread-yield) (sleep-for 30)))))` and wait for the new thread to yield to
the main thread.
- `C-g`. The new thread disappears from the `list-threads` window.


Note: While I am admittedly on Windows, given this behavior is within the
cooperative threads of the Emacs runtime (rather than actual Windows
threads) I *really* doubt that has anything to do with it.
