Re: ASIO problem with boost 1.78.0.beta1 ?

Hi all,

I have taken the opportunity to migrate my code to use any_io_executor
instead of executor, as recommended here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65840258/boost-1-74-0-asio-executor-migration-issues

I now don't need to define BOOST_ASIO_USE_TS_EXECUTOR_AS_DEFAULT
anymore. That fixes the problem. I verified this by compiling with
gcc-11, too, where the original problem was also present.

Hence it seems to me that backwards compatibility of boost::asio through
BOOST_ASIO_USE_TS_EXECUTOR_AS_DEFAULT is broken in 1.78.0.beta1.

Cheers
