Ok, got it eventually. So the problem seems to be that BOOST_HAS_THREADS is
an overload set of two functions ;)
1) The compiler supports threading (?)
2) The user asked for thread support/safety
I think it started with 2) and then switched to be 1) because of compilation
errors. I'm not into threading issues but this needs to be disambiguated for
sure.
