Commit aa68c99d88 added some code using
std::condition_variable to comphelper.
Built with MSVC 2017, this causes many cppunittester.exe processes to
deadlock in ThreadPool::shutdown():
maTasksChanged.notify_all();
This ultimately calls NtReleaseKeyedEvent(), which never returns.
The reason appears to be a bug in Windows 7, for which a "hotfix"[1] is
avaiable here, but it's apparently not distributed via Windows Update
so we likely can't rely on users or even developers having this installed.
However, the documentation of DllMain[2] and ExitProcess[3] indicates
that during shutdown, by the time global destructors are invoked
all threads other than the one that called ExitProcess have already
been terminated.
Returning from main() implicitly calls ExitProcess [4].
As it turns out the problem only happens for some CppUnitTests because
soffice.bin will call ThreadPool::shutdown() from Desktop::doShutdown()
while it is still safe.
