Macintosh Carbon Thread Error with Boost 1.30.0

Hey guys,

I just tried to get the new Boost 1.30.0 release to work on MacOS, using
TARGET_CARBON (with threads turned on).

I have a problem to report:  there's a new "lightweight mutex" being used by
the smart pointer library.

There does not seem to be a lightweight mutex implementation for the "Carbon
MP tasks" thread implementation.

So - when I compile my code under Boost 1.30 I end up at:

#  error Unrecognized threading platform

in lightweight_mutex.hpp when it tries to compile any of the smart pointer
stuff.  

Help!  :-)  

                                -- Bobby
