Sorry, I look better for the problem and I found that actually it pass
ok through that WFSO( pReaderThread->m_hThread, INFINITE ). That was
another problem (not related) and all code is executed, but still with
that memory leak:

MySerial.cpp(21) : {120} client block at 0x00432410, subtype 0, 224
bytes long. a MySerial object at $00432410, 224 bytes long
That points to
IMPLEMENT_DYNCREATE(MySerial, CWinThread)
in my header.

If I recall correctly, you turned off m_bAutoDelete. And now the thread is
closing properly and WFSO returns OK, meaning the thread has exited. When
you turn off m_bAutoDelete it means you are responsible for the deleting.
Why are you surprised that with m_bAutoDelete off it does not get deleted?

So after WFSO returns you should do CloseHandle on all open handles,
including pReaderThread->m_hThread, and then delete pReaderThread.
