Yes, Unix-APIs are really achaic. When you have a filename written
with ohne user's locale and another with a different locale reads
that he get's at most a partitially readable filename. For Janis
this seems to be flexibility, but for me that's a problem. A file-
system should have fixed charset, at best Unicode.
