How do you test UNICODE support?

I used attached shell file with msys (sh test_unicode.sh) and it works
as expected (only the unicode filename without FF_WINUTF8 fails). I
also tested with an app that used Find(First,Next)FileA() and passed
the unicode filenames as ascii string to ff_winutf8_open() and it also
worked as expected.
