     Type:  Bugs              |      Status:  new       
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |   Component:  filesystem
  Version:  Boost 1.52.0      |    Severity:  Problem   
 Keywords:                    |  
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 When composing paths on Windows invalid paths are created, when the first
 path is only a drive letter, as shown in the following example.

 {{{
 fs::path root = "C:";
 fs::path dir = root / "folder";
 // dir is now "C:folder", expecting "C:/folder"
 }}}

 Tested with MSVC++10 on Win7.
