Even though this is mentioned in the documentation for the ReadWriteMutex
concept, in the actual documentation for read_write_mutex there is no
mention that it's not included.
Links:
http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/read_write_mutex.html
http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/try_read_write_mutex.html
http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/timed_read_write_mutex.html

Does this need a ticket making?
