[Boost-users] Boost.Threads && MFC?

Has anyone ever used Boost.Threads in combination with MFC?

MFC requires that threads using MFC functionality be created with
AfxCreateThread().  What I'm wondering is if it is safe to create threads
using AfxCreateThread() (instead of the Boost.Thread functionality) but then
use the Boost.Threads mutexs and locking mechanisms to manage the thread
activity.

>From my brief perusal of the source it looks like it might work.  But I was
hoping I could find someone who had actually tried it and might have some
experiences to share.  :)

Any information greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
Tim.
