Comment (by michael.burr@…):

 I added the lines

 {{{
 #define
 BOOST_THREAD_PROVIDES_THREAD_DESTRUCTOR_CALLS_TERMINATE_IF_JOINABLE 1
 #define BOOST_THREAD_VERSION 4
 }}}

 to `boost/config/user.hpp` and rebuilt the library.  This didn't have an
 effect on the problem.

 But to be honest, I'm not 100% sure this is the right way to do what you
 asked.

 I have also tried changing the typedef for `thread_data_ptr` to:

 {{{
 typedef boost::shared_ptr<detail::thread_data_base> thread_data_ptr;
 }}}

 but that results in several other compiler errors occurring. I haven't had
 a chance to work through updaing the uses of `thread_data_ptr` to resolve
 those errors.
