v1.02: Fixed a bug in BufferedAsyncSerial: Using the default constructor the callback was not set up and reading didn't work.

v1.01: Fixed a bug that did not allow to reopen a closed serial port.

v1.00: First release.

IMPORTANT: On Mac OS X boost asio's serial ports have bugs, and the usual implementation of this class does not work. So a workaround class was written temporarily, until asio (hopefully) will fix Mac compatibility for serial ports.

Please note that unlike said in the documentation on OS X until asio will be fixed serial port writes are not asynchronous, but at least asynchronous read works. In addition the serial port open ignores the following options: parity, character size, flow, stop bits, and defaults to 8N1 format. I know it is bad but at least it's better than nothing.
