[Boost-users] recursive_timed_mutex::timed_lock()

Hello ALL,

I'm having problems using recursive_timed_mutex::timed_lock() on Linux -- an
assertion failure occurs at line 171 (thread/pthread/recursive_mutex.hpp) :
pthread_mutex_timedlock() returns ETIMEDOUT instead of expected EBUSY.

After some hours of headache I checked out it's cousin --
mutex::timed_lock() -- and realized the (in my opinion) correct
implementation.

Is it a bug in recursive_timed_mutex.hpp ?

Thanks in advance.

Eduardo Tavares.
