Not any more....
My confusion arose from the fact that the notes for g_filename_to_uri() (i.e.
the note inside gconvert.c) states that its based on the requirements of RFC
2396:-
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt
which has no requirement for a URI string to be pre-converted into UTF-8.
However, I've just been told by a colleague that RFC 2396 has been superseded
by RFC 3986:-
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986
by which time, the requirement had been introduced (see the very last paragraph
of section 2).
So yes - it looks like Glib is doing the right thing and the problem must be
elsewhere. Thanks for everyone's help with this.
John
