Comment (by anonymous):

 please find attached a proposed solution to the speedup the access to
 boost::this_thread::get_id, currently injected as inline code, but may of
 course reside in an object file shared to platform independent code.
 the solution for boost::main_thread does only work, if the dll is not load
 delayed at runtime, because then the assumption for the recurring static
 intialization in the singleton from boost::pool fails (before main) and
 threading and also the wron id becomes and issue. perhaps a more
 transparent solution, choosing the thread with the lowest (highets id ?)
 woudl serve better ?
