[Boost-users] Disabling synchronization in Boost.Thread

Hi,

Is there some easy way to disable all of the synchronization primatives 
in Boost.Thread, or in other words, make them all no-ops?  I have 
written some generic code to be used in both singlethreaded and 
multithreaded environments, and it would be convenient for me to simply 
be able to 'switch off' synchronization when I know that I am in a 
singlethreaded environment, without having to uglify my code with 
ifdef's or similar.  Simply disabling threads in Boost seems to cause 
synchronization primatives to fail to compile at all.
