Sadly no. It also happens on my native Windows.


Here is the dump of filename as integer and as a string right before 
the call to any_reader_may_open:



67 58 92 85 115 101 114 115 92 77 105 99 104 101 108 92 68 101 115 107 
116 111 112 92 110 195 163 111 46 115 97 118
C   :  \  U   s   e   r   s  \  M   i  c   h   e   l  \  D   e   s   k 
  t   o   p  \   n   Ã   £   o  .   s  a   v

Pspp is really trying to use a utf8 string as non-utf8.
