[boost] filesystem hard link question

I am using the following common idiom:

link (name, name.old)
rename (name.new, name)

To update a file atomically

I'm interested in using boost::filesystem instead of libc, but I didn't find
any equivalent of link in filesystem.  Did I miss it?  Should it be added?
