No, the timer thread starts even without -threaded.
If you use -threaded it gets worse because then you have
a bunch of other threads that don't exit properly.

I've found more bugs. There are several race conditions when a DLL is unloaded. The extra threads that the GHC runtime system starts (at least one is always started to generate timer ticks) are not shut down in a synchronized way. This means that they might be scheduled to run after the DLL has been unloaded. Which gives you an access violation. I don't have a proper fix for this yet.
Is this with -threaded?
