I don't think so - Python itself apparently dropped support for Windows 9x
in Python 2.6:

I'm not sure about this. On Linux, as I understand it, filenames are
represented as bytes, which are generally *displayed* as UTF-8 by
convention. Decoding all filenames to wide characters and later re-encoding
them seems destined to create problems somewhere. Is it possible to do this
so that the wide character filenames are only used on Windows?
Thanks,
