Hello,

libs/filesytem/src/portability.cpp defines valid_posix as a
std::string object instead of a const char * pointer. May I know if
there are reasons for that?

I'm using Boost.Filesystem as a shared library and my processes crash
on exit with stack traces pointing to the static destruction of
valid_posix. Making it const char* fixes the crashes.

Regards,
Hai
