 '''A.''' The documentation for ''at_thread_exit()'' and in the
 Interruption section of Thread Management should be amended. If a thread
 is interrupted and the exception is not caught, the thread will terminate.
 In that case is the function specified in ''at_thread_exit()'', if any,
 called?

 '''B.''' It would be beneficial to add an example of the use of
 ''at_thread_exit()'' in one of the programs in the
 ''\libs\thread\example'' subdirectory.

 '''C.''' In the Effects section of the documentation for
 ''at_thread_exit()'', the sentence[[BR]]
 ''A copy of func is taken and stored to in thread-specific
 storage.''[[BR]]
 should probably be[[BR]]
 ''A copy of func is taken and stored in thread-specific storage.''[[BR]]
 or simply[[BR]]
 ''A copy of func is placed in thread-specific storage.''
