I think this has to do with the transition to UTF8 which is slower and not understood everywhere.
You have to revert to StandardFileStream.
I just tried the following snippet from 3.8 in trunk: | fileStream | fileStream := StandardFileStream forceNewFileNamed: 'addedItems.txt'. fileStream ascii. fileStream nextPutAll: 'gagaÄÖÜßöäü'. fileStream close
and could open it in an old, non UTF8 aware editor.
