Hello Julian,

In my opinion the following Helgrind-trunk behavior is incorrect:
* Helgrind-trunk does not complain on any access of buffer_t::in,
buffer_t::out or buffer_t::buffer.
* Helgrind-trunk complains on pthread_exit(). If you want to know why
drd-trunk doesn't complain on pthread_exit(), see also
