           Summary: FreeLibraryAndExitThread looks wrong
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-kernel
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: pablo.yabo at gmail.com


I saw the documentation of FreeLibraryAndExitThread in the MSDN and says:
"The FreeLibraryAndExitThread function allows threads that are executing within 
a DLL to safely free the DLL in which they are executing and terminate 
themselves. If they were to call FreeLibrary and ExitThread separately, a race 
condition would exist. The library could be unloaded before ExitThread is 
called."

And the implementation of Wine does exactly:
FreeLibrary(hMod);
ExitThread(dwExitCode);

There is no difference to call both functions instead of this.
