Comment(by arvid_at_[hidden]):

 in my opinion, asio shouldn't have the placeholders in the first place.

 Asio supports any binding library/mechanism, and it shouldn't add an
 unnecessary dependency or preference for any particular one. Granted, once
 bind is part of std:: it makes more sense, but I think the gain is
 minimal, and the confusion outweighs it.
