Just to be clear, as I think I need to fully understand this. The
problem in issue #44 is that a lookup for 'winapi' from inside
'boost::detail' picks up the 'boost::detail::winapi' namespace from
your log header, but without including the header that sets up the
'boost::detail::winapi' namespace to import all of 'boost::winapi'.
The master branch of Boost.Thread does include the header, so there's
no problem there. And this can only happen inside 'boost::detail', so
it shouldn't ever affect user code.
