I've tried to compile this version with VC8 and got errors that
boost::detail::win32::timeout is not defined. I guess this constant is
missing in the thread_primitives.hpp file. I've attached the patch
that fix it.

BTW, will there be any way to specify the priority for readers and
writers for read/write mutex?
