The documentation is far from obvious on this point. It just reads: "This copy is invoked when the current thread exits (even if the thread has been interrupted)."
Source: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_40_0/doc/html/thread/thread_management.html#...
I expect the function to get invoked if the thread exits for *any* reason, not just because the documentation says so but also because it's what I want from a coding point of view.
OK, I'll update the documentation.
