I've written a couple small classes to better support the creation of monitor 
objects, see:

http://www.comedi.org/projects/libpoet/boostbook/doc/boostbook/html/poet/monitor_ptr.html

I'd like to know if there's any interest in adding something like this to 
boost, and also looking for ideas on how to improve my implementation.  It 
works via a monitor_ptr class, which is like a shared_ptr with automatic 
mutex locking, plus an (optional) monitor_base class that lets classes 
managed by monitor_ptr do wait/notifies on a condition.

I put it in libpoet, but the monitor_ptr and monitor_base stuff really only 
depends on boost.
