Short update: I have another patch here, this time against read_write_mutex.cpp, featuring another unused function. The other good news is that I have Boost threads running on a MIPS based embedded system, running on top of MS Windows CE.

However, this whole patch is not even necessary because the whole function is not used (tip: grep for boost_error, this reveals another unused one!). My success above with the MIPS board were made with the code removed, once I saw that the whole thing is not necessary I didn't bother testing it. Yes, I first rewrote the whole thing before realising that it is unused.

Thanks. I'm hoping shortly to check in a lot of changes to read_write_mutex.cpp, which has several problems. I'll try to make sure to do something sensible about what you report here. Mike
