Hey,

I don't know the boost process, but are you guys putting these things into the head branch yet?
I just fixed what may be a related problem locally in my working copy (checked out a only a few hours ago).

Basically the template functions were taking parameters of Path&, which would sometimes force the template parameter Path to be a const type, and in turn make some other data-types not default-constructible.  

What is the policy here: should I send a svn patch? Can I send attachments to the list?
