New submission from Sindri Guðmundsson :
Raising an Exception in a callback handler of apply_async and/or map_async will
kill the _result_handler thread. This causes unexpected behavior as all
subsequent callbacks won't be called and worse, pool.join will deadlock.
The documentation states that callbacks should return immediately but it does
not warn the user against raising an exception.
Attached are steps to reproduce.
