Comment:

 The _tls_used stuff is there to ensure correct cleanup of the per-thread
 data structures used by boost.thread. I do not know how to fix this for
 IA64.

 Since what is there is broken at the moment, I could remove it entirely,
 and leave it to users to define boost::tss_cleanup_implemented(), and
 ensure that boost::on_thread_exit is called when every thread exits.
