-------------------------------------------------------+--------------------
 I am trying to write a serial library using Boost's asio, but on mac OS X
 the async_read throws boost::asio::error::invalid_argument.  I have
 created a custom completion condition to ignore the invalid_argument
 exceptions, but this causes a busy wait (using a lot of cpu time) yet does
 not prevent data from being read.

 I have attached source code and output from both linux and os x.

 Linux: Ubuntu 10.10 i386 - Boost 1.42.0
 Mac OS X: 10.6.6 - Boost 1.45.0
