Comment (by Michael Rasmussen <Michael.Rasmussen@…>):

 C++/CLI has an extension called {{{__identifier}}} (See
 https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hzc8ytsz.aspx) that can be used
 to work around it. Something like the following should work:

 {{{
 #ifdef __cplusplus_cli
 #define generic __identifier(generic)
 #endif
 #include <boost/filesystem.hpp>
 #ifdef __cplusplus_cli
 #undef generic
 #endif
 }}}
