I am wrong there: What I said above is true for the main program thread. 
When the main program terminates, its threads are terminated as well.

Otherwise, a child can continue running even though its parent (owner) 
has terminated. This is evidenced by the fact that std.concurrency has 
an exception named OwnerTerminated, useful for the child.
