Oh, I didn't explain my situation properly: I'm writing a memory 
allocation library and there's some thread local state that I 
must take care of when the thread exits. Now, I can always do as 
you said and ask the user to place calls to certain functions at 
thread main, but I'd really prefer if that was done 
automatically. Also, using global lists for thread state 
management will likely lower performance for applications that 
rapidly create and delete threads...
Is there no other way?
