Ok, it happened again. Does not matter anyways.
I decided to let the code in there intentionally, but had the error 
macro clearly tell the user: "Read Write Mutex is broken, do not include 
this header."

Also I fixed the documentation to make things clear as well.
(Not clear enough it seems though.)

Since I repeadetly find myself in just beeing overruled in my decisions,
(without beeing asked first) I just suggest to hand over my duties to 
someone more respected.

Since I also find myself not beeing able to spend a lot of time on the
work on Boost.Thread because of other projects, I'd like to ask if
Anthony is willing to take over all my duties too.

I think Anthony has proven to be better prepared for this task than me.
