You might want to catch that exception :)

Both of these are system-specific paths (because of the leading '/'), so the 
exception actually comes from here. Change to:

fs::path p1("/home/ghost", fs::system_specific), 
         p2("/a/b/c", fs::system_specific);

With that change, I get the result:
  /home/ghost/a/b/c
