This is cleared up now, as you said.

I've fixed these errors (in read_write_mutex.cpp) as well, but the 
LinuxMandrake tests haven't re-run yet. Ditto for the Darwin tests, 
which are failing with these same errors.

For the HP-UX tests:

These are failing with the error "Error 119: 
"/home/tk/boost_regression/boost/boost/config/requires_threads.hpp", 
line 71 # #error "Compiler threading support is not turned on. Please 
set the correct command line options for threading: -mt""

Apparently the bjam configuration for this compiler is incorrect?

For the win32_metacomm tests:

Boost.Threads is now passing for msvc, msvc-stlport, vc7, and vc7.1, 
except for the test_read_write_mutex test, which is still failing on all 
toolsets with the error "Cannot open include file: 
'boost/thread/detail/config.hpp'". Hopefully that test didn't re-run for 
some reason?

The borland-5.6.4, cwpro8, intel-win32-7.1-vc6, intel- win32- 7.1- vc6- 
stlport- 4.5.3, and meta- como- win32- 4.3.3- vc7 toolsets are also 
still failing with the error "Cannot open include file: 
'boost/thread/detail/config.hpp'". Hopefully those tests didn't re-run 
for some reason?
