Description
In Windows Mobile 5 (and possibly other versions), FindFirstFile() returns ERROR_NO_MORE_FILES (==18) rather than ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND (==2) when called on an empty directory. This behavior is also known to occur on Win32 in certain circumstances (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841524). Current trunk code throws an exception from the directory_iterator constructor.
I suggest checking for both codes; proposed patch is attached.

Cannot edit the caption on the attachment: it's a patch for operations.cpp, not hpp.
