[boost] [boost.thread] Static Library support for Windows

In the attached file you will find a proposal for how the problem
of static linkage can be solved for Windows.

The files can be dircetly inserted into the boost library framework.
They almost do not touch existing implementation and also
provide for a backup solution (overrideable) in case some 
unforeseeable things are happening.

The solution has been worked out for MS compilers so far.
However the principle should be portable to borland compiler
as well. I would like to encourage someone with knowledge in 
this field to attempt this.
