A legitimate concern (btw Windows error reporting is fully customizable by
the user).
In my opinion the difficulty of the crash reporting library is on the
server side, that doesn't mean there's nothing to do on the client side.
What a Boost.Crash library could do is be able to gather a "minidump" plus
some logs, package that in a file and have it ready to be handed over to
whatever reporting server you're using.
