Comment (by anonymous):

 With Boost 1.55 running on Windows 8.1 I was seeing a single false
 connection.  On Boost 1.56 I see repeated false connections, over and over
 again.

 By "false connections" I mean that the connect handler for async_connect
 gets called right away (when the other end of the socket is not there),
 with error_code zero and where conn->socket.is_open() return true.
 Stepping into the boost code I see in win_iocp_io_service.ipp line 405
 result_ec is 10057 (WSAENOTCONN).  The next line of code (ec =
 boost::system::error_code();) sets ec to zero.

 Does anyone else see this?
