Is there something else I need to configure to build this version of the library?

It is my understanding that you don't need to specify BOOST_FILESYSTEM_VERSION when building Boost 1.44. This macro is to be placed in the preprocessor settings of a program that uses Boost 1.44.

Better still, if you want to make sure not to use any deprecated stuff (which might go away later), you do something like this #define BOOST_FILESYSTEM_VERSION 3 // for boost 1.44, only #define BOOST_FILESYSTEM_NO_DEPRECATED #include
