[boost] Theads & Exceptions - Dual Paradigms?

Since we have an opportunity to catch the transportable_exception and an
std::exception&, we can provide support for both paradigms. This means that
a thread function that doesn't properly use boost::throw_exception will have
to have its exceptions thrown as pointers (whenever a reference is specified
in the exception list).

Does everyone welcome this additional support? It will require good
documentation.
