Hi.
When building Boost using VC8, on a Hebrew supporting Windows, it issues
this (probably) minor warning:

warning C4819: The file contains a character that cannot be represented
in the current code page (1255). Save the file in Unicode format to
prevent data loss

for the following files (no line numbers were reported):

boost_1_33_1\boost/filesystem/exception.hpp
boost_1_33_1\boost/filesystem/operations.hpp
boost_1_33_1\libs\filesystem\build\../src/exception.cpp
boost_1_33_1\libs\filesystem\build\../src/operations_posix_windows.cpp

I think the origin of the warning is the comment at the top of these
files which contains the name of "Dietmar K?hl". The second character of
the last name, shown here as '?', is not pure English ANSI, and it's
probably the cause of the warning. (maybe that's an idea to add to the
Boost inspect utility?)

Compiling my own code that uses the filesystem library also issue this
warning, since header files are involved.
