You should encode the filenames to UTF-8 before passing them. Unless you
have any other requirements, you shouldn't need custom I/O handlers. As
of 2.6.24, under windows, the io handlers will first attempt to convert
the path from utf-8 to wide chars and use the _wxxxx functions to stat
and open. If you need to support prior versions, you can always use the
code within xmlIO.c to write your own handlers.
