I asked the question on comp.lang.lisp https://groups.google.com/d/msg/comp.lang.lisp/4_avbEqQw0s/9Kbk_CD6DwAJ

The issue is that the documentation
https://trac.common-lisp.net/bordeaux-threads/wiki/ApiDocumentation
does not seem to specify whether join-thread returns the value of the function given to make-thread.
In fact the documentation does not indicate what the correct way to get the return value is without using global variables and locks.

I suspect this is simply an omission from the documentation, or that I'm reading the wrong documentation.

My suggested fix is to update the documentation, and also update the docstring(s) of join-thread.

Fixed by 286dd93, but related to #53 since the documentation is not yet updated.
