[boost] A fast-pathed rw-mutex algorithm for Boost...

Here is the initial experimental pseudo-code that I am thinking about prototyping in IA-32 Assembly: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.programming.threads/browse_frm/thread/5f... It can use DWCAS on 32-bit systems, and CAS on 64-bit systems so its fairly portable... I understand that Boost has a problem with it's current rw-mutex? This one should blow it away wrt performance. I believe that the older Boost implementation made use of condition variables and mutexs, which are not needed... You can use sem_t or SysV semaphores for the slow paths... Any thoughts?
