examples: use exit() instead of pthread_exit() from main thread.

OSX seems to spawn an extra thread for GLUT. As a result, we can't just call pthread_exit() because there's still one thread left after we kill all the threads we directly spawned, so the examples never stop running. Signed-off-by: Drew Fisher <[email protected]>
