Summary:
exec fails when ruby is built with pthreads enabled

Detailed description 
On Mac OS X, if ruby is built with --enable-pthread, you cannot (ever?) use exec; you'll get an EOPNOTSUPP error. Doing
some Googling I've found that it's because not all the pthreads in the app are terminated/joined, and Mac OS X won't
exec while other threads are running,
