If you're interested, apparently it was a known issue, since the latest
development version has signal support:

http://think-async.com/Asio/boost_asio_1_5_3/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/signal_set.html

FWIW, I haven't had any problems after copy/pasting the signals-specific
header files into my Boost 1.46 distro.
