<p>
Almost every line of code in <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Thread</strong></span>
has been changed since the 1.34 release of boost. However, most of the interface
changes have been extensions, so the new code is largely backwards-compatible
with the old code. The new features and breaking changes are described below.
