  \brief Extremely Light-Weight guard class.
  \details Auto-lock/unlock-er
  detail/guard.hpp provides a type guard<Mutex>
  that allows scoped access to the Mutex's locking and unlocking operations.
  It is used to ensure that a Mutex is unlocked, even if an exception is thrown.

	Given a (platform-specific) mutex class, we can wrap code as follows:

	extern mutex global_lock;

		boost::details::pool::guard<mutex> g(global_lock);
