Hi, i have a little and strange problem whit the savegames. When i change the default name for "aux" or "AUX" the game freezes, but when i put other name like i don't now... "game 1" the game don't freeze and work correctly.
Maybe is fault of my computer's but, does somebody have the same problem?

No solution, as it is one of the many DOS Reserved Device Names inherited by Microsoft Windows. Just don't create files with those names.

At any rate, freezing is not a good way of handling such an error. I guess this is another wonderful feature of boost_iostreams, though I'll have to double-check that.
