On Windows, however, the situation is far less simple: some new(er) APIs expect UTF16 (wide-character strings), some older APIs can only work with strings in a "platform" format, where not all UTF8 characters can be represented; which ones can depends on the current "code page".

One exception is `JVM_LoadLibrary()` logging where the UTF8 name of the library is logged, which can, of course, be fixed, but was considered not worth the additional code (NB: this isn't a new bug).

The test sources have Apache license, I thought we always used GPL for tests.
