Maybe the library should reside in its own sub-namespace and then this
namespace should be imported into boost:: with using directive. This
import would be optional, depending on some macro, and would be declared
deprecated.
More simply, boost/thread.hpp could do
#include "boost/thread/whatever.hpp"
     #include "boost/thread/whateverelse.hpp"
     namespace boost
     {
         using namespace threads;
     }
Yep, or even better:

    #ifndef BOOST_THREAD_NO_IMPORTS
    namespace boost
    {
        using namespace threads;
    }
    #endif
