So I have introduced you Vladimir's and my patch again.
The patch was introduced to FreeBSD lists several times since Apr 1999.
Our patch allow at least Latin-1, Latin-2, Russian, and Japasese users
to read CD with native filenames also until proper I18N will be
introduced.
Moreover, the patch already have KLD ability and easy extendability.
Your workaround never deserve of official audit in comparison to ours.
NOTE: Our patches is also a 'workaround', and is not based on
my "rough idea" proposed in this thread.
NetBSD folks had already discussed on my patch a year ago,
and I have decided that my patch couldn't deserve of audit.
