Thank you for the bug report! This bug is fixed in the SVN trunk, and
the repair will be included in v372.
The problem was specific to Windows and the 3m variant of PLT Scheme.
More specifically, the bug was in the clean-up sequence of a data
structure that records Windows-level threads, including ones that are
created to manage Windows-level pipes as Scheme ports, such as the
pipes created by `subprocess'.
