Thanks for confirming what I figured from the source. But this is 
exactly what the Windows short path names are for - if your application 
can't handle Unicode filenames, use the short names. I tried it and it 
fails. Firebird explicitly converts the short path name back to a long 
name it can't use?!

It seems to mostly work with UTF-8 on linux, or at least I had it 
working a couple of years back.
