Ok, I was mixing version of asio and didn't notice the changes between 
the two example files.

There is two versions of this file on my system and the other one (part 
of cygwin) in definitely not included in my path. Moreover I was 
compiling the example using the Jamfile provided so... I'll dig this if 
  I have some time and keep you posted if I found out what's going on.
