---------------------------------------------+------------------------------
 When using boost::filesystem on osx, it doesn't perform any unicode
 conversion for wpath. It seems to be because it does not use the correct
 facet.

 Adding following lines fixes the problem,

  std::locale global_loc = std::locale();
  boost::filesystem::detail::utf8_codecvt_facet utf8_facet(1);
  std::locale loc(global_loc, &utf8_facet);
  boost::filesystem::wpath_traits::imbue(loc);
