Previously a child process was used on Unix and a thread on Windows and they each communicated with the main thread via pipes which includeded platform specific code and upon closure on Windows could result in crash. Now a thread is used on all platforms with safer ways of cancellation. Little behavior should have been changed though timing of print events are now after connecting finished which might be a minor issue.
