-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
 After updating from Boost 1.42 to 1.53 in the OpenBSD ports tree we
 started seeing apps utilizing Boost-filesystem fail with an error of
 "std::runtime_error: locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid"
 when using non-C locales. Another developer pointed to some of the bug
 reports regarding this issue on other OS's. I synced the Boost-filesystem
 code from SVN but it still did not resolve the error. Once OpenBSD was
 added to the UTF-8 code path within Boost-filesystem the errors went away
 and the apps were working. Attached is a patch for Boost-filesystem.
