I have been looking at the boost asio 1.45 docs but there
is no mention of �signal handling ?

Is this is a known deficiency of asio, or are there any
any recommended ways of handling signals �in a asio server ?

If you're interested, apparently it was a known issue, since the latest development version has signal support:

FWIW, I haven't had any problems after copy/pasting the signals-specific header files into my Boost 1.46 distro.
