I would like to ask someone to look at the patch if it is safe to be
applied, and do so. It's been first identified 2 years ago. If I can do
something on my part, or other reporters, I am willing to do whatever is
necessary to expedite this.

Opinions?
I guess it would be very prone to deadlocks in existing code. I, for
one, would not welcome such an unexpected change of behavior in a
minor version upgrade.
I'd suggest to turn this on via an optional argument to the bp::class_ template (or using a "global" variable settable at runtime for controlling this), would that be an option? While I see the possibility of deadlocks (in code which must be broken anyway), ATM what we get is segfaults and workarounds for those.
