It will be interesting to see how much we can implement as header only with the existing interface to prevent the need to link the entire lib. For example, I don't think a basic mutex and scoped lock should need implementation beyond hpp. Being able to deliver suitable primitives for making apps thread safe without linking a boost lib is a nice goal to keep in mind.
asio (http://asio.sf/net) has its own threading library (WIn32 + Unix) implemented in headers, for example. /Pavel
