I've decided not to attempt support for Cygwin in the next version of Boost.Filesystem.
I have posted your comments on the cygwin mailing list and post the answer below. It says that cygwin is not using the GNU C library but newlib which does not have the full set of wide character functions. Any idea how to help newlib get the missing functions?
Implement them? Maybe it's too facile an answer, but I can't think of anything else... -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
