Revision 43296 is quite old. There have been a few fixes since that
might be related to your problem, but I suspect this might be the one:
http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/43879/trunk/boost/asio
It would be better if you could try to reproduce the problem with the
latest revision, however.
