  * resolution:  => invalid

Comment:

 The asio::deadline_timer typedef uses the UTC clock, as documented
 [http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_49_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/deadline_timer.html

 here].

 If you don't want to be sensitive to UTC clock changes then use the new
 asio::steady_timer typedef, or write your own custom time traits to use an
 alternative clock as shown in
 [http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_49_0/doc/html/boost_asio/examples.html#boost_asio.examples.timers

 this example].
