I'm also not a bjam expert, and Bronek said he wasn't either. He arrived 
at this solution by experimentation.

Roland's right, though: the error message looks identical to the 
Boost.Threads error that was fixed by this change. It would be nice if 
someone got to the root of the problem and figured out what change 
caused this error: it only appeared recently, at a time when no 
Boost.Threads changes had been made.
