Dear Gennadiy

I just uploaded the code in case someone was interested in seeing a possible workaround, and I wasn't expecting it to be added to the native Boost UTF. 
In addition if Lazy/Delay loading is ever going to be supported in the "real" Boost UTF it would require much more than what I uploaded in the previous mail.

I agree that we could just ship the required UTF DLL. Personally I do however prefer to ship only what is needed and with the above implementation we save some overhead on initializing the UTF when it is not needed.

Best regards

Johan

These are massive changes. You can submit a new ticket with a patch. I'll
consider it, but I must say I am still not convinced that the problem warrants
any action. Why can't you just ship it with UTF dll?
