We show that certain general properties of threshold and joint resummations in Drell-Yan cross sections hold as well for their crossed analogs in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering and double-inclusive leptonic annihilation. We show that all plus-distribution corrections near threshold have the same structure, and are determined to all logarithmic order by two anomalous dimensions, one of which is a generalization of the D-term previously derived in Drell-Yan. We also discuss the possibility of universality in power corrections implied by the resummation.
