i18n: looking for expertise

Michael:

on my box, (winXP SP2), sys.getfilesystemencoding() returns 'mbcs'.

If you post your revised solution to this unicode problem, I'd be
delighted to test it on Windows.  I'm working on a Tkinter front-end
for Vivian deSmedt's rsync.py and would like to address the issue of
accented characters in folder names.

thanks
