Comment (by chris_kohlhoff):

 In my opinion this is really a MinGW bug. Lower-case is not a standard for
 windows headers and MSDN does document mixed case header names.

 {{{
  Directory of C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Include

 14/07/2009 07:53 PM 1,052,826 WinError.h
                1 File(s) 1,052,826 bytes
 }}}

 Of course, this is a straightforward change to asio so I will just go
 ahead and fix it. However, do feel free to take up the issue with MinGW as
 it would improve that compiler's ability to handle valid Windows programs
 :)
