[issue27354] SSLContext.load_verify_locations cannot handle paths on Windows which cannot be encoded using mbcs

[Ilya Kulakov]

Ilya Kulakov added the comment:

I checked the source code of OpenSSL, specifically the `bss_file.c:file_fopen` function (https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/OpenSSL_1_0_2h/crypto/bio/bss_file.c#L118-L167).

As you can see it support UTF-8 encoded strings under Windows. Python must follow up.
