There is UTF-8 support already in this code. Currently, you need to
use a mount option utf8 to use it, but it should work just fine. I don't
see any reason it won't go in. I've only sent it to Linus once, and that
was just before the filesystem changes began, so it really hasn't had
much of a chance yet.

I've just about finished updating fat32 and Joliet to 2.1.56pre1,
so it should be available with the latest stuff again soon.
