Seems that we were reading each other mind: Your patch is more thorough than what I would have produced, but the overlaying parts would have been almost identical ;-) However, the patch seems incomplete to me as I don't see where from_filesystem8bit is defined. Anyway, I don't see how it could fail on both cygwin and win32. Please put it in and I'll test it later (and also accordingly update the patch attached to bug 3082). -- Enrico
