At the moment, I don't see any other option than to process the path string manually before passing it to the path constructor (kind-a defeats the whole purpose of using this class).
[Nat] I'd suggest a string pass -- on every platform -- to change every '\' to '/' before passing it to boost::filesystem::path. I believe forward slash should work everywhere. I find it plausible that backslash would only work on Windows.
