Thanks for the tip. Yes, my project is C++ based, and we use Boost
extensively (and not just for threads). We have begun to use Boost threads
as an implementation of our internal process-thread "wrapper" (we were
previously only using ACE <http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html>).
However, I don't see how our usage of Boost in my project's code is going
to get around the postgresql-8.1.3 build problems under mingw as per my
original email. Maybe I'm missing something?
