hello_world example does not compile #581

Description

Using cpp-netlib 0.11.2, boost 1.54 and gcc 4.8.5 or gcc 5.2.1 compiling this example:
http://cpp-netlib.org/0.11.2/examples/http/hello_world_server.html
will fail.

First the example does not mention that a log handler is needed, this can be fixed with modifying the hello_world struct:

struct hello_world {
    void operator() (server::request const &request,
                     server::response &response) {
        std::string ip = source(request);
        response = server::response::stock_reply(
            server::response::ok, std::string("Hello, ") + ip + "!");
    }
    void log(...) {
    }
};

But then it fails with:

g++-5 -std=c++11 -lcppnetlib-server-parsers -lboost_system -lboost_thread -pthread a.cpp :(

a.cpp: In function ‘int main(int, char*)’:
a.cpp:31:49: error: no matching function for call to ‘boost::network::http::server<hello_world>::server(char
