rtcw doesn`t use threads theres only one process during the execution of
rtcw and thats the process that hangs on exit. the process can be
terminatet with Ctrl-C.
Steven Walter reported that the problem also exists in the demo version
of the games which is aviable at various places. maybe you could debug
the problem?

its about 66MByets to download and i understand if you don`t have the
time to do it - but maybe you can give me some hints to debug the
problem.
