Subject: [Boost-users] Thread question.... detecting deadlocks?

I assume I will find the answer to this right after hitting
"send", but my googling so far has turned up nothing.
Is there a way to turn on deadlock detection in the thread
library somehow? I realize it would be slow, and possibly
change the behavior of my program so as to give a "false
negative", but I'd still like the option.
Sigh. (note to self: don't hold locks across a function,
unless you know exactly who and what that function will call).
