Well done! Looks quite easy to use.

A few documentation problems:
- detail headers shouldn't appear
- pistream/postream do not inherit from std::istream/std::ostream nor to 
have any stream-like members, at least according to the reference
- the Asynchronous I/O section should clearly say you need to use named 
pipes for this to work.
