Subject: [PATCH] Fix Plink, the serial backend, and local-proxy support on
 Win98SE (at least), which have been broken since r6797. (At least some
 versions of Win9x are gratuitously picky about the arguments to
 CreateThread(), requiring lpThreadId not to be NULL.)

[originally from svn r7132]
[r6797 == 291533d3f9abb6f33ebe2a73f34420fc9f8e9433]
