New description:

 If a thread in a thread_group is not joinable and
 BOOST_THREAD_THROW_IF_PRECONDITION_NOT_SATISFIED is defined,
 thread_group::join_all() throws invalid_argument. Since it's impossible to
 enumerate the threads in a thread_group, it should ensure on its own that
 every thread is joinable().
