No, the flac code will not be "littered with code that's not necessary
on the primary platforms".
There will be some windows specific code in a new file, a bunch of
replacements of existing fopen() calls with flac_fopen() (similarly
for chmod and utime) and the main function for the flac and metaflac
executables will have an additional:
#ifdef _WIN32
if (!convert_argv_to_utf8(&argc, &argv))
flac__utils_printf(stderr, 1, "ERROR: yada yada\n");
#endif
This is a small un-obtrusive change that I fully support.
I would however like to see it sooner rather than later so we can get
this damn thing released :-).
