One more improvement that could also be done would be to make the global 
mutex static_mutex() "set" oriented:
https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/block_ptr/boost/block_ptr.hpp

This way modifications to a "set" could be made per thread; i.e. a "set" 
would be thread independent from each other.  But this is not trivial 
unless we work together on this.
