[PATCH] Fix invisible threads problem

Browse source 
When the main thread of a thread group has done pthread_exit() and died,
the other threads are still happily running, but will not be visible
under /proc because their leader is no longer accessible.

This fixes the access control so that we can see the sub-threads again.
