It’s probably decoding according to your system codepage and it’s probably a side-effect of our upgrading Guile in the Windows build. Please file a bug report. There are a couple of possible work-arounds in the meantime: You can try changing the system encoding to cp65001, which is UTF-8. That might get Guile to read the file correctly. Alternately you can use another program to recode the file in your system code page (IIRC cp850 for Germany). Notepad++ might be able to do this.
