 The documentation for 'Changes since boost 1.34' of the Boost.Thread lib:
 http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/doc/html/thread/changes.html

 does not note the following changes to the lib:

  * Default constructor creates object representing Not-a-Thread (<1.35
 represented current thread)
  * <1.35 mutex on Windows was recursive (used critical section).  The
 <1.35 docs indicated that it was platform dependent if mutex was
 recursive.  1.35 mutex is not recursive.
