Re: [BUG] with non-ascii characters in dir names

A student reported here that `M-x compile' fails when the
directory
name contains non ascii stuff. I've tried it myself and tracked it down a bit
and it seems that the fuckage occurs when getting the string with
XSTRING_DATA. I seem to get \201 characters just before all non ascii ones so
I guess the process gets a bogus directory. I'm not very familiar with the
coding system stuff. Any ideas how to fix this ?
Judging from some grepping through the source. The data should
probably be converted into file-name-coding-system, using
GET_C_STRING_FILENAME_DATA_ALLOCA (defined in buffer.h [1])
