In case of failing getWideString, we have already a fallback in place that is
just copying bytes :
wstr = getWideString(CP_UTF8, (char*)utf8, len, &wlen);
if ( wstr == NULL ) {
// Can't allocate WIDE string
goto just_copy_bytes;
}
So in these cases it is probably not needed to abort the VM, because fallback
code exists anyway.
So should we add the free, and replace UTF_ERROR by something like UTF_WARNING
(thats just prints the problem - message without abort) ?
