> We probably want to do this at some point. It will remove one fragility in
> the build system (currently, we select whether we need {{boost::filesystem}}
> or not depending on the selected build options, then set the
> {{ARROW_WITH_BOOST_FILESYSTEM}} macro that triggers compiling different
> versions of a couple utility functions).
