Thanks.  But I would reserve my judgment at least until we see that no
significant breakage was caused by these invasive changes.

(My testing was as thorough as I could afford, but my Windows machines
are always configured for a single-byte locale with US English as the
default language, so I have no real-life use cases for working with
non-ASCII directories, let alone those outside of the locale's
codepage.)
