Wide character support has now been in Boost.Filesystem for several releases. It was merged into the main trunk in December of 2005. That implies Unicode for many, but not all compilers.

Support for Unicode wide characters is also somewhat dependent on C++ and the C++ standard library. C++0x will include a number of improvements to better support Unicode.
