Actually, to most Windows programs "Unicode" actually means "UTF-16le
with BOM"; however they usually can read (but not write) other Unicode
encodings if a BOM is present. So IIUC it's actually another aspect of
the same problem.
However, Bram has taken the custom to separate patches for "Unix"
(including common), "extra" (including Windows and VMS) and "language"
sources, so these two patches should perhaps be kept separate after all.
Best regards,
Tony.
