 Your comment 1 is wrong.

 As long as the line

 static const winsock_init<>& winsock_init_instance =
 winsock_init<>(false);

 in winsock_init.hpp exists, there is no way to manage the winsock
 initialization.

 Please make the winsock initialization managable by the user of asio. The
 static initialization within DllMain is wrong.
