This is no longer an experimental facility. The names deferred and
deferred_t have been temporarily retained as deprecated entities under
the asio::experimental namespace, for backwards compatibility.
Boost build has changed so that documentation is built relative to the
Jamfile, rather than the current working directory. This broke the ASIO
documentation build, to fix it specify the location using the 'name'
parameter - which is a bit wonky, but it's what boost build looks for.
for returning a C++11 std::future from an asynchronous operation's
initiating function.
To use asio::use_future, pass it to an asynchronous operation instead of
a normal completion handler. For example:
std::future<std::size_t> length =
my_socket.async_read_some(my_buffer, asio::use_future);
Where a completion handler signature has the form:
void handler(error_code ec, result_type result);
the initiating function returns a std::future templated on result_type.
In the above example, this is std::size_t. If the asynchronous operation
fails, the error_code is converted into a system_error exception and
passed back to the caller through the future.
Where a completion handler signature has the form:
void handler(error_code ec);
the initiating function returns std::future<void>. As above, an error
is passed back in the future as a system_error exception.

io_service.notify_fork() at the appropriate times. Two new examples have been
added showing how to use this feature. Refs #3238, #4162.
* Clean up the handling of errors reported by the close() system call. In
particular, assume that most operating systems won't have close() fail with
EWOULDBLOCK, but if it does then set blocking mode and restart the call. If
any other error occurs we assume the descriptor is closed. Refs #3307.
* EV_ONESHOT seems to cause problems on some versions of Mac OS X, with the
io_service destructor getting stuck inside the close() system call. Use
EV_CLEAR instead. Refs #5021.
* Include function name in exception what() messages.
* Fix insufficient initialisers warning with MinGW.
* Make the shutdown_service() member functions private.
* Add archetypes for testing socket option functions.
* Add missing lock in signal_set_service::cancel().
* Fix copy/paste error in SignalHandler example.
* The signal header needs to be included in signal_set_service.hpp so that we
can use constants like NSIG and SIGRTMAX.
* Don't use Boost.Thread's convenience header. Use the header file that is
specifically for the boost::thread class instead.

Mostly to use the images and css files under doc/src instead of
doc/html, usually be deleting the settings in order to use the defaults.
Also add 'boost.root' to some builds in order to fix links which rely on
it.

Tweaked some existing Jamfiles so that PDF build finds all the necessary image files etc.
Tweaked fo.xsl to provide more options by default, and improve formatting.
