Shouldn't it be '_createThread'?

Why is it like this?  What do you intend with the thread['addSample']
method?  Can it be simpler like a direct function call?

And more importantly, you'd better make each patch work properly.
AFAICS it won't do the job because both _createtread() and
thread['addSample'] are not implemented yet.

You can either move those definitions to this commit or have the
commit implementing them before this one.

Thanks,
