Hi John,

I was reviewing the change you made above.  I'm not claiming that I fully 
understand the code.
I was just curious because in this section of code there are 8 definitions 
of the call_once function.
4 of them do not use the BOOST_THREAD_RV_REF macro while 4 do.  Your 
modification enclosed
the last 3 functions using the BOOST_THREAD_RV_REF macro.

Again out of curiosity, I moved the beginning of your #if one function 
upwards.  When I did this,
it eliminated all the remaining call_once errors that I mentioned in my 
previous email, i.e.
problems 1 & 2 have disappeared.  Only problems 3 to 5 remain.

Problem #3, I reviewed the definitions of the invoke function.  They seem 
strange to me because I can see
identical function signatures and body with the only difference being the 
template arguments.
It's even stranger because the additional template argument is not used.

Problem #4, due to my lack of familiarity with the code, I'm unable to track 
down the missing type.

Problem #5, I didn't even try to figure it out because I don't know Python.

That's all I have for now, I hope this helps.

Regards,
Leo
