 Please, could you tell me if fixes the issue.

 You will need to compile Boost.Thread after uncommenting in the config.hpp
 file or compiling everything with -D


 {{{
 //#define BOOST_THREAD_USEFIXES_TIMESPEC
 //#define BOOST_THREAD_HAS_CONDATTR_SET_CLOCK_MONOTONIC
 }}}


 As the commit says, this is a partial solution as it needs to define some
 compiler defines, but at least it could be used to check if the solution
 works.

 I order to don't need the flags I would need to be able to detect
 BOOST_THREAD_HAS_CONDATTR_SET_CLOCK_MONOTONIC and move inline, everything
 that could depend on it.

 I believe that I can remove BOOST_THREAD_USEFIXES_TIMESPEC, but is a
 little bit too late for boost 1.64.
