The purpose of the startup lock was to hold threads at the startup_lock so if a thread creation fails, it's still possible to have them end themselves by looking at info->stop. Since we are back to using pthread_cancel instead of info->stop, we don't need this any more. The only wrinkle is we need to only send pthread_cancels to successfully-created threads, so now check this in the destroy_threads reverse-loop.
