I believe barrier is generic. We can implement a split if it turns out to
be best implemented in a platform-specific manner.

Yes. pthread_rwlock_init and friends.

TSS was failing because there wasn't an implementation. In my update
today, I see that there's now some code, but I haven't tried it.

No. I do "bjam --dump-tests test" in the thread dir. I tried to run the
full regression tests (which therefore use BBv2) on an overnight run, but
my hard disk died, and I haven't found the time to set that going again.
I thought it was just a matter of adding --v2 to the bjam command line, or
something like that.
