I'm not a fan of this approach either. Would it be too complicated if
we had a global variable that indicates which thread is the progress
reporter? We start that with thread 0, but if the reporter thread
finishes its transactions then it elects some other thread which hasn't
yet finished. For this to work, each thread would have to maintain in a
global variable whether it has finished or not.
