Of course it does (after converting from narrow to wide strings), so libxml2 might just as well cut out the middle man, declare xmlModuleOpen/xmlModulePlatformOpen to take a xmlChar* to an UTF-8 string, convert it itself with MultiByteToWideChar(CP_UTF8), and call LoadLibraryW. This would give wider functionality on WIndows; I believe Linux can also handle UTF-8 nowadays.
