IOW, you'd create a barrier for two threads and both thread_proc() and the constructor would wait() on the barrier. Once both threads have called wait(), they are both released. (I plan to present that at C++ Now, this year.)

As said that's create a not needed "wait" on the thread body, what the
OP (and me for the matter) needs is that *only* thread creator is
blocked waiting for the threads to arrive at certain point of the
execution.
