[bug-gettext] bindtextdomain with non ASCII directory name on windows

[Frédéric Bron]

Hi,
Is there a way to set the base directory on Windows (mingw-w64) if the
directory name contains non ASCII characters.

char * bindtextdomain (const char * domainname, const char * dirname);

the function takes a const char* dirname so that the only way is to
pass a UTF-8 string which would work on linux. On Windows, the OS does
not work with UTF-8 strings so that I guess it would not work. What
can I do?

Regards,

Frédéric
