nre 0eb4685558 Return default locale on POSIX systems ...

The comment here is incorrect; an empty locale is not the correct
behavior here and will cause exceptions to be thrown in other code.
Instead a locale object with the default constructor should be
returned, not one created with an empty string. This is a known issue
which was originally reported here:

https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/4688

The issue claims to have been fixed in 7bb19f9 (see also:
https://svn.boost.org/trac10/changeset/72855).

However, this only fixes the issue for FreeBSD and not other POSIX
platforms. This patch is based on the one originally submitted here:

https://svn.boost.org/trac10/attachment/ticket/4688/boost_filesystem.patch
