Both issues are related and should be fixed in the same commit. Python should provide an option to encode explicitly filenames to UTF-8. Or maybe better: encode to UTF-8 by default, with an option to encode to cp437, and another to encode to an arbitrary encoding.

I opened an issue proposing exactly the same change, but I didn't provide a patch. I found this: http://bugs.python.org/issue10614 but it has (seemingly incorrect) patch. Also related: http://bugs.python.org/issue10972 Victor - is any of these what you had in mind?
