Would this mechanism be able to deal extraneous on_thread_exit calls due
to the user-provided handler calling on_thread_exit (since an
implementation I have in mind would have no idea if a thread was Boost
thread or not)?

Now that you've formed this interface, I plan on submitting an
implementation for this function (that I mentioned previously) that I'd
expect to work on at least MSVC and future versions of Windows GCC, by
the end of the July.
