Certainly. I'll look into it, but be aware that due to limited time and 
upcoming vacation, it may be a little while before I can get to it.

What suspected bug in the Windows TLS code did you report? I don't 
remember it, unless you mean that you consider not being able to link 
the Boost.Thread library a bug.

I did get them and will look at them more closely when I get the chance. 
Along with you and several others, I too would be interested in a 
statically linked version of Boost.Thread (even if that requires 
eliminating some features in the statically linked version), so I am 
quite interested in looking at your suggestion about this.
