#9968: [filesystem] Streams don't handle unicode file name on Windows
-------------------------------+------------------------
  Reporter: mike@… | Owner: bemandawes
      Type: Bugs | Status: new
 Milestone: To Be Determined | Component: filesystem
   Version: Boost 1.55.0 | Severity: Problem
Resolution: | Keywords: mingw
-------------------------------+------------------------

Comment (by artyom):

 The problem is that boost::filesystem::ofstream uses native filebuf - and
 mingw does not support wide path parameter so basically it fails back to
 narrow strings.

 In these terms ofstream is not really useful under mingw.
