    Description

      Running a program that creates a thread and then calls start() and wait() in a loop causes the following error on Linux:

      terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::future_error'
        what():  std::future_error: No associated state
      

      Here is the program:

      #include <QCoreApplication>
      #include <QThread>
      #include <QTimer>
      
      static void startAndWaitForever()
      {
          QThread *thread = QThread::create([](){ });
      
          for (;;) {
              thread->start();
              Q_ASSERT(thread->wait());
          }
      };
      
      int main(int argc, char **argv) {
          QCoreApplication app(argc, argv);
      
          QTimer::singleShot(0, startAndWaitForever);
          return app.exec();
      }
