On Windows, the file functions return the file names translated to the 
system locale, whatever the internal file system encoding is. The fonts 
use the same locale, so there is never trouble when standard system 
fonts are used.

On Cygwin, the file functions return the file names translated to the 
current Cygwin locale (LANG variable).
