Two more issues with the 'next' branch:

(1) It appears that the Boost 'system' and 'filesystem' modules are now 
required.  This should be documented somewhere.

(2) The Boost 'filesystem' module does not build on MinGW, because wstring 
is not supported in its libstdc++.  I will look at the latest MinGW to see 
if this has changed. One possibility is to use an alternate C++ library 
(such as STLPort), but that sounds like a lot of work.

An MSVC port is looking better all the time!
