// However, there is a distinction in returned value for the thread function

// Thus on Windows we have to encode returned void* as DWORD. It is OK for WIN32,
// but potentially problem on WIN64. 
// To avoid any problems with this, for better application portability it is recomended 
// that the thread function returns just integer (casted to void*).
