OK, after revision 62420, quickbook works as is with v3.

While it is great when existing code works with v3 without changes, it
would be better for the long run to avoid use of deprecated names and
features. All new code should define BOOST_FILESYSTEM_NO_DEPRECATED.

I'm working on better docs for transitioning existing code.

Thanks,
