Probably not: vorbiscomment simlpy depends on the OS to provide locale
support.  Here is a reliable test: use --raw to dump the UTF-8
comments to a text file and open them with Notepad.  I think you need
win 2000 or later for Notepad to read UTF-8; you can also try opening
the tet file with IE (select UTF-8 encoding in the menus if needed).

If I don't hack on it, who will?  And if I don't GPL it, what am I?
And if it itches, why not now?  [With apologies to Hilel ;]
