I've re factored boost.fiber (-> boost vault 
http://www.boostpro.com/vault/index.php?&direction=0&order=&directory=Concurrent%20Programming). 

The library provides a so called lightweight thread of execution (also 
known as user-space thread or fiber on WIN32).
The API is modeled after boost.thread.

Beside a scheduler (currently simple round-robin) for the fibers the 
library provides sync. primitives like mutex, condition- and 
event-variables (auto-reset, manual-reset, count-down). Message can be 
passed between fibers via bounded-/unbounded-fifo.

Some feedback would be nice.

regards,
Oliver
