Milestone:  To Be Determined               |  Component:  filesystem
  Version:  Boost 1.54.0                   |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                                 |
-------------------------------------------+------------------------
 There was a change in create_directories since 1.48.0 where it handles
 empty paths differently. In 1.48.0, the function would return false, but
 in recent versions it will throw an exception instead of returning false
 because the logic that handles empty paths was removed. This case is not
 covered in the unit tests.
