Even if so, you still need to be able to answer the question "how do I link to Asio in such a way so that its dependency System is statically/dynamically linked?"
I'm saying that ASIO header only users almost certainly will also want header only Boost.System.
I don't think so (although now that it has been fixed to use Winapi instead of <windows.h>, maybe). But even if true, users of static library A that uses Asio will not necessarily want a header-only Boost.System, which means that static library A has to have a way to link to Asio "statically".
