+ // GNU libstdc++ specific workaround for opening UTF-8 paths on Windows.
+ //
+ // On Windows, it is only possible to reliably access multibyte file paths through
+ // `wchar_t` APIs, not `char` APIs. But because the C++ standard doesn't
+ // require ifstream/ofstream `wchar_t` constructors, and the GNU library doesn't
+ // provide them (in contrast to the Microsoft C++ library, see
+ // https://stackoverflow.com/questions/821873/how-to-open-an-stdfstream-ofstream-or-ifstream-with-a-unicode-filename/822032#822032),
+ // Boost is forced to fall back to `char` constructors which may not work properly.
+ //
+ // Work around this issue by creating stream objects with `_wfopen` in
+ // combination with `__gnu_cxx::stdio_filebuf`. This workaround can be removed
+ // with an upgrade to C++17, where streams can be constructed directly from
+ // `std::filesystem::path` objects.
