Comment (by bbazso@…):

 I do not think that this issue should be closed or perhaps another one
 needs to be opened, but there is definitely still a problem associated
 with this issue.  When I call the function:

 boost::filesystem::create_directories (iDirectory);

 To create a directory, I get the error:

 locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid

 I am running Boost 1.47.0 on the following system:


 {{{
 DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
 DISTRIB_RELEASE=9.04
 DISTRIB_CODENAME=jaunty
 DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 9.04"
 }}}

 I manually patched Boost 1.47.0 with the patch in this issue and it solves
 the issue.  So I think that a issue should be opened or this one re-
 opened.
