Yes, you can kill pthreads. From `man pthread`:
int pthread_cancel(pthread_t thread)
Cancels execution of a thread.
You acquire the pthread_t from:
int pthread_create(pthread_t *thread, const pthread_attr_t *attr, void
*(*start_routine)(void *), void *arg)
Creates a new thread of execution.

Well, that would rock, except that currently I'm using NSThreads,

I really should be using pthreads anyway for portability reasons. I
wonder if pthreads can be killed? If so, that would be great. I
would make the switch in a heartbeat if that were the case.
Anyone know if pthreads can be killed from the main thread?
