The constructor you're calling in this case expects the portable path
format, not the native one.  You need to tell it that it's a
native-format path:
fs::path p("d:/temp",fs::path::native); // iirc

I think this might be changing in the new and improved version in the
soon-to-be-released 1.34 however, so you might want to start
using/wait for the new version.
