I forgot to maybe give some explanations. The documentation of the constructor of TagLib::FileStream takes a char* and "file should be a be a C-string in the local file system encoding". This means that the proper fix would possibly involve doing changes in TagLib itself to better handle non ASCII characters on Windows.
