Andreas,
The conditional is incorrect and unnecessary. filename encoding depends on
filesystem, not the VM platform. For instance, I could have a UTF-8 file on a
USB flash and use it across different VMs.
AFAIK, FAT fs does not support UTF-8. NTFS, HPFS (Mac) and all current Linux
filesystems support UTF-8 in filenames.
