Should be:

   #if !BOOST_WORKAROUND(__HP_aCC, <= 53800)

or, if you have __HP_aCC == 53800

   #if !BOOST_WORKAROUND(__HP_aCC, BOOST_TESTED_AT(53800))

Hmm, that's silly. Looks like aCC might need full qualification here.
But then, aCC is riddled with silly bugs.

Try direct workarounds in the filesystem library, I guess.
