Hi,

A number of guile's scheme procedures look-up or reference files on a
file system (open-file, load and so forth).

How does guile translate filenames from its internal string
representation (ISO-8859-1/UTF-32) to narrow string filename encoding
when looking up the file?  Does it assume filenames are in locale
encoding (not particularly safe on networked file systems) or does it
provide a fluid for this?  (glib caters for this with the
G_FILENAME_ENCODING environmental variable.)
