 I've seen a few posts to boost-dev stating that it is wrong to use
 CP_THREAD_ACP when converting between 'ANSI' and wide filesystem paths.
 CP_ACP should be used as well.

 The issue was raised by Yechezkel Mett in http://groups.google.com/group

 /boost-developers-archive/browse_thread/thread/fa5da7ff49db6d70 but
 received no response.

 Two other users also chimed in in the discussion started at
 http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/filesystem-path-does-not-use-global-

 locale-s-codecvt-facet-bug-or-feature-td3333336.html.
