Mmmm ping? I tested patch in few various conditions, it always displays
correctly various european, cyrillic, japanese and chinese symbols. It
doesn't care about current locale encoding, but requires utf-8 encoded
filename to work correctly; if filesystem has names encoded in non-utf-8
compatible encoding, obviously name in title won't be correct, but it'll
work without crashes, just result will be as bad as before this patch
(right now, window title is broken regardless of encoding for non-ascii
characters).
