Sounds risky. Most Win32 system calls that take or return strings in
Unicode form are implemented only on NT/2000/XP, not in Windows 9x/ME.
And it wouldn't surprise me at all if Microsoft's C library is
ultimately dependent on some of those system calls for its support of
wide strings.

IIRC, Microsoft's Internet libraries include some UTF-8 string APIs. If
those are general-purpose enough (as opposed to dedicated URL-processing
functions), then you might be able to write an abstraction layer that on
Win32 uses those calls, and on other platforms does whatever is
appropriate there. That would be nicer than going by way of UCS-2.
