Well, so I can't "just get out of the CLR". As I mentioned earlier, this
is a managed C++ project that exposes native functionality from other
libraries to .NET. That is, I *have* to include the native headers,
which in turn include boost.

This worked fine in VS2008, too, so it sounds more like a regression in
the compiler I think.

Also, when compiling for x86, I see the following warning but everything
still compiles (the warning is to be expected, as you say yourself):

4>boost_1_43_0_sdk\include\boost\thread\win32\basic_timed_mutex.hpp(160)
: warning C4793: 'boost::detail::basic_timed_mutex::unlock' : function
compiled as native :
4> Found an intrinsic not supported in managed code
