I'm _this_ close to just removing the buggy thread priority code unless someone steps up to fix it.  I don't have the time to screw around with it and the failure rate due to that one issue is pathetic.

Sigh,
Brad

I think the problem is that Task pool constructor launches thread and then tries to adjust priority without checking whether thread has already terminated. Druntime can be partly blamed for absense of functions which do things right, but task pool constructor is broken anyway. Perhaps just comment out  if(priority != int.max) ...  for some time untill core.thread is upgraded for proper priority support?
