We've been using UTF-8 VM encoding for a while, to be able to access  
files with non-ASCII characters in their path. However, I haven't  
found a way to permanently switch the image (3.8) to UTF-8 encoding.  
It keeps resetting to Latin1 on startup. The only solution for me was  
to put this line in my own startup code:

	LanguageEnvironment classPool at: #FileNameConverterClass put:  
UTF8TextConverter

Did anybody create a better solution than this horrible hack? I feel  
someone else must be using UTF-8, too, now that we support it ...
