In Python 3 it fails with UnicodeEncodeError in 
"C:\Python33\lib\encodings\cp437.py", while Vista's 'dir' command shows 
everything correctly in the same console, so somebody definitely overlooked 
that aspect.

This bug is clearly an issue for developers who write products for 
international markets. It is neither out of date, nor it is invalid. Note in 
documentation in red is a must have, also a warning should be issued in warning 
mode when os.walk() ignores international dirs. I doubt there are many people 
who aware of this racist behavior and want it be default.

resolution: invalid ->
