Subject: [boost] [threads] final decision on making parts of Boost.Threads header-only

Hi,

A few weeks ago we had a discussion about the convenience
of making part of Boost.Threads, namely mutexes and locks,
header-only. Some (including Anthony Williams) supported the
idea, others disliked it:

http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2009/04/150524.php

What the final decision on this issue is? If positive (i.e. favoring
the change), can it be expected to be done for Boost 1.40?

As a remainder, I've created an associated trac ticket:

https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/2964

Thank you,
