Subject: [boost] [thread_local] emulation !?

Hi,
I have been using a mechanism to emulate [thread_local] storage for some
time now. However, I am aware of boost.thread has thread local heap. The
difference is with thread_local emulator we have similar c++0x syntax
working seemlessly. for example:
thread_local <int> tlocal_integer(-1);
// assign the global thread_local value
void foo(int i) {
*tlocal_integer = i;
std::cout << this_thread::get_id() << " : " << *tlocal_integer << endl;
}
int main()
{
boost::thread_group tg;
for(int i=1;i<500;i++) tg.create_thread(bind(&::foo, i));
*tlocal_integer = 0;
std::cout << "main : " << *tlocal_integer << endl;
tg.join_all();
return 0;
}
Wondering if anyone is interested into porting this to boost???
