Hi,

from a discussion around early November last year, I gather that
OpenBSD has not much UTF-8 support right now. I am a bit unsure about
whether having file names with UTF-8 characters are supported, though.
I don't need to type the characters, nor see or print them, but only
have a program like

fd = open(filename_with_utf8_characters);

succeed on a standard OpenBSD disk (FFS, if I'm not mistaken), using
open(2) and fopen(3).

I'm currently debugging a third-party application that happens to want
to use UTF-8 filenames, but doesn't seem to find them, and, FWIW, the
file names I get with "ls" are ISO-Latin-1 encoded, anyway.

It would be great if someone could make a definite statement about
this issue.
