So this is taking something that *already works properly on POSIX systems* and making it work on Windows as well. I doubt it does without side effects. For example, an application that would go through sys.path, and encode everything with sys.getfilesystemencoding() currently works, but will break if the patch is applied and non-mbcs strings are put on sys.path.
Huh? It won't break on any path for which it is not already broken.
You seem to be saying "Paths with non-mbcs strings shouldn't work on Windows, because they haven't worked in the past."
