[boost] boost 1.32: read_write_mutex assertion

Hello,

I'm using Boost.Threads read/write mutex with the writer scheduling
priority. Under heavy load, from many threads, I'm getting the following
assertion:

<..>/boost/boost_1_32_0/libs/thread/src/read_write_mutex.cpp:190: void
boost::deta
il::thread::read_write_mutex_impl<Mutex>::do_write_lock() [with Mutex =
boost::mutex]: Assertion `++loop_count == 1' failed.
Abort (core dumped)

The system is Linux kernel 2.4.21 (SMP) with 4 CPUs (Intel XEON MP) and
g++ 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-42).

Has anyone else experienced a similar problem?

Thanks,
Slawomir
