This is correct. I just didn't want to postpone the inevitable and
continue using ANSI when we can use UNICODE.

The relevant point here is that some volunteer will have to
build and test this extra configuration with every subsequent

I'm going to post my patch and let the list decide. I assume that
whoever reviews this will have questions that you can answer.
