[Bug 510018]

I built kdelibs with the patch, exported the KDE_UTF8_FILENAMES and it
seems to work as advertised: strange chars are replaced by boxes on the
filenames, but I can rename and delete them sucessfully.

I'll keep using the patch on one of my machines to see if there are any
other issues.

Big thanks to Szokovacs Robert, and to all the people that complained
loudly for all these years: this is your chance. Test the patch, use it,
and if it works, bug your favorite KDE developer, or distribution to
include it. Tell your friends to use it. Package and distribute it.
Don't just complain and leave. I reported this bug in 2008, and I'm
still here :)

P.s.: Applying the patch gave me a whitespace warning:
encoding.patch:173: trailing whitespace.
