Unfortunately, in boost 1.46 taking out the call to string() results in this 
failure:

sbuild-chroot-config.cc: In member function 'void 
sbuild::chroot_config::add_config_directory(const string&, const string&)':
sbuild-chroot-config.cc:170:49: error: no matching function for call to 
'std::basic_string<char>::basic_string(boost::filesystem3::path)'
