--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 I suggest adding a line in boost.thread document to say something like:

 "it's safe to mix usage of boost.thread and native thread api in cases:
 blah blah..."

 so others won't be hesitant to change using boost.thread with existing
 frameworks or in legacy systems.
