Hello,

SysUtils for Windows utilizes only A Windows APIs, while it could use
W APIs in Windows NT. The attached patch starts correcting improving
the situation.

Advantages of the patch:

* Allows for unicode file names in TStringList.LoadFromFile if you
install paswstrings as the unicode manager.

Disadvantages of the patch:

* None that I can imagine.

IMO a more radical solution is desireable, WRT Win9x. Did anybody test already, how FPC/Lazarus apps behave on such a system, which does not support themes etc., and does not even support Unicode without system updates?

I'd split the Win32 target into WinNT (W) and Win9x (A), so that the users can decide whether to support Win9x at all.
