The thread lib isn't currently building with msvc-8, cygwin and Mingw32:
I've checked in a fix for MSVC-8 and mingw. Looking at the regression runs, it appears the Intel compiler was having the same problem. I added "explicit" to the thread move constructor by mistake; I'm not sure why I didn't spot it before as I test on mingw.
Cygwin has lots of compiler errors: looks like it should be configured to use the POSIX thread lib rather than the Win32 API's?
That's what Jamfile.v2 is supposed to do. I'll install cygwin and check it out.
Really we shouldn't be getting this many breakages this close to a release!
I agree. I'm trying hard to import the work I've been doing with MSVC-7.1 across all the supported compilers. Sometimes I make mistakes, and sometimes I'm caught by surprise.
