#### Atomics

Boost.Asio's implementation can use `std::atomic<>` in preference to `boost::detail::atomic_count`.

Support for the standard atomic integer template is automatically enabled for `g++` 4.5 and later, when the `-std=c++0x` or `-std=gnu++0x` compiler options are used. It may be disabled by defining `BOOST_ASIO_DISABLE_STD_ATOMIC`, or explicitly enabled for other compilers by defining `BOOST_ASIO_HAS_STD_ATOMIC`.
