However for GCD thread (created with dispatch_async()) I get the

pthread_exit() may only be called against threads created via pthread_create()
Is there a way to handle this case?
Just return from the block you passed to dispatch_async()
Is there a way to exit a GCD thread?
There's no such thing as a "GCD thread" only queues.
(OK, there's a pool of threads that GCD uses to service queues, but
you don't own them)
At least, is there a way of telling POSIX threads from GCD / other threads?
WAYRTTD?
Exiting threads is bad form in general -- if you're really writing an
exception handler, catch it at the outermost level and just return so
the thread terminates normally.
Same for your outer block in GCD.
