Hi,

with the current cvs-version (7/23/2004) i can't build the thread 
library with stlport 4.5.3 and msvc60.

I use the following bjam command:
bjam "-sTOOLS=msvc-stlport" "-sSTLPORT_PATH=D:\develop\STLPort" 
"-sSTLPORT_VERSION=4.5.3"

and get the following errortext:
...\boost-23072004\libs\thread\build\..\src\barrier.cpp(21) : error 
C2440: 'type cast' : 'char [22]' kann nicht in 'class 
_STL::invalid_argument' konvertiert werden
      Quelltyp konnte von keinem Konstruktor angenommen werden, oder 
die Ueberladungsaufloesung des Konstruktors ist mehrdeutig

Sorry about the german error-text. it's something about: can't convert 
char[22] to 'class _STL::invalid_argument'

I don't know that wrong about:
throw std::invalid_argument("count cannot be zero.");

because the StlPort defines invalid_argument as:

class _STLP_CLASS_DECLSPEC invalid_argument : public logic_error {
public:
invalid_argument(const string& __arg) : logic_error(__arg) {}
# ifdef _STLP_OWN_IOSTREAMS
~invalid_argument() _STLP_NOTHROW_INHERENTLY;
# endif
};

With the microsoft stl everything compile fine. (bjam "-sTOOLS=msvc")
