Looks like Boost.Threads no longer compiles with VC7.0 and earlier, is this a deliberate change, or was it unintentional? Just checking, thanks, John.

I don't have easy access to those compilers any more, so it is hard to test, and I did not want to limit the implementation to just what would compile with those compilers, as they are no longer supported by Microsoft. I am open to patches that will enable compilation with older compilers, however. Anthony
