boost::thread IDs

I know there was a discussion about the need for these and why they're 
not in the library. I can't find it, however.

I'm having the same problem the original poster had: I'm using the 
thread ID as an identifier in a data structure (std::map in this case). 
Now that I'm converting to the Boost threads library, I have to change 
that. I'm not sure what to do instead.

Any help, either a pointer to the original discussion or direct 
suggestions, will be much appreciated.

Thanks,

P.S. Other than this glitch, my ObjectSpace Toolkit removal has been 
painless. Great libraries!
