[boost] Compilation errors upgrading boost from 1.34 to 1.37 (Windows)

Dear all,
I've just upgraded the boost library from 1.34 to 1.37 on Windows.
When I try to compile our software with the new library version (both with
VS 7.0 and with VS 9.0) I meet 2 different kind of problems. In our software
we instantiate the class boost::recursive_mutex::scoped_lock (instance of
the template unique_lock), and one problem seems that the class
boost::recursive_mutex doesn't implement the function
unlock_upgrade_and_lock. 
I'm compiling the code settings the define BOOST_THREAD_WIN32, I don't know
if there are others defines to be specified.
Follow the VS 9.0 output (with the compilation errors):

Have you any suggestion on how to solve our compilation problem?

thanks in advance
