#2386: [bcp] Support trailing slashes in the boost path

Milestone:  Boost 1.37.0  |   Component:  None       
  Version:  Boost 1.36.0  |    Severity:  Problem

--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 In bcp, if the '--boost' option has a trailing slash it causes problems in
 'bcp_implementation::add_directory' when it removes the path from paths.
 The fpllowing code removes one too many characters:

 {{{
       if(m_boost_path.string().size())
          s.erase(0, m_boost_path.string().size() + 1)
 }}}

 The attached patch tries to fix this. It's very hacky, but it's the only
 way I could work out how to do it with Boost.Filesystem.
