Hello

The new boost::filesystem::unique_path in V3 filesystem is great, but is 
there any way to also get the temporary directory ? A function that 
would return ::GetTempPath() on Windows systems and something like /tmp 
or /var/tmp on POSIX systems ? Or is there some portable way to do this 
already ?

Thank you,
Timothy Madden
