Geert,

I have mixed feelings about it too. Unfortunately there’s no way to use file 
streams with wchar_t paths with gcc. Visual C++’s c++ standard library 
naturally does support it, but it will take a lot of work to get GnuCash 
building with VC++.

We could make a gnc_fopen copying the code for g_fopen into core utils 
somewhere and implement a c++-sh gnc_file_get_contents around it to remove that 
dependency on glib.

Regards,
John Ralls
