I tried this:

while (true) // PROBLEM: reentering this loop fails - why?
{
  io_service.reset();
  boost::thread t(boost::bind(&boost::asio::io_service::run, &io_service)); 
[...]

Now the reconnection does not succeed either and 
after some tries I obtain an invalid file handle error.

I guess I am missing some fundamental thing with asio ...
