Thanks for the help. I had never used the Boost.DateTime library before and hadn't realized that the Boost.Thread library interface depends on the Boost.DateTime library.

Just to clarify, the thread library hasn't used the date-time types up till 1.35 -- it's something that's been long discussed, it just took a long time to get to. Also, this type of interface has now been proposed for C++0x -- unfortunately it's been somewhat controversial so it's been, in and now out, of the working draft. Jeff
