A few weeks ago we had a discussion about the convenience of making part of Boost.Threads, namely mutexes and locks, header-only. Some (including Anthony Williams) supported the idea, others disliked it:

What the final decision on this issue is? If positive (i.e. favoring the change), can it be expected to be done for Boost 1.40?
I haven't yet had a chance to investigate the issues. I will try and do so reasonably soon.
Hi Anthony, any chance the decision (if it's positive) be taken and inplemented by Boost 1.40? As it happens, I have a bunch of changes on Boost.Flyweight waiting for the resolution of this issue. If the decision is negative or is postponed until after 1.40 I'd like to know so as to defer my own changes too.
I'm snowed under at the moment, and haven't got round to looking at this. It will therefore be deferred to post-1.40.
