In boost/thread/locks.hpp, there is a forward declaration which is not defined anywhere.

template<typename Mutex> class exclusive_lock;

Yes. It's supposed to be a forward-declaration of unique_lock, but it isn't actually required, so the lack of forward declaration doesn't cause a problem. Beman, Shall I remove the declaration of this undefined type from the release branch? Anthony
