(svn r2807) Fix two major bugs in the threaded save code:
- Do not dereference a local variable which no longer exists; this lead to random crashes when saving
- (Win32) Do not close a handle before it is used last
There are still many major problems (race conditions and resulting memory corruption/crashes) left
