I use Boost.Filesystem in a C++ "script": I use C++ instead of Python or shell script in order to be portable across operating systems.
That script is used in bootstrapping the build system of my C++ project, and people have complained that they need to build boost.filesystem just to be able to bootstrap the project.
For information, I ended up writing my own abstraction over the filesystem system functions. I still think it would be useful to have a minimal header-only part in boost.filesystem itself though.
