Comment (by ttan@…):

 The way to achieve skipping inaccessible directory in the client code
 without patching Boost is to follow this pattern:


 {{{
     for (recursive_directory_iterator itr(root, ec), itr_end;
 itr!=itr_end;/* itr++*/)
     {
         // do stuff

         // replace ++itr with a no-throw version and
         // pop this directory out to resume with the next one
         itr.increment(ec);
         if(ec) itr.pop();
     }
 }}}

 it works on my trials. Help it's helpful to others as well
