You need to link the boost filesystem lib.  So your command line needs to be
something like:

 $ g++ boostDir.cpp -o boostdir -L $PATH_TO_BOOST_LIB_INSTALL -l
filesystem-gcc-d-1_31

I'm not sure what the path or name of the filesystem lib will be on your
machine, but hopefully you'll be able to figure that out...
