In boost::thread, the cond var is created dynamically using 
pthread_cond_init, signalled on the new thread, and waited for on the 
joining thread. Also, of course, the condvar is wrapped in 
boost::condition_variable. It really shouldn't make a difference though.

Create a trac ticket at https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ and attach the 
patch. If it looks reasonable then I'll commit it to trunk.
