Parallel restore checks wrong thread return value?

in spawn_restore:

       if (child == 0)

But from my reading of the docs, _beginthreadex() returns -1 on error, not 0.

Bug, or am I reading it wrong?

I was.

_beginthread() returns -1 on error, and _beginthreadex() returns 0.

That's just brilliant.

Sorry about the noise.
