I've just tried to share a file with a '?' in it and it caused
absolutely no problems. GTKG doesn't request a file by name but by its
reported urn:sha1. I'm pretty it's a problem on the remote servent.
AFAIK Windoze users cannot have any files with '?' (maybe with NTFS)
because it's a special character in their little world. The filename
might have been URL-encoded and caused problems in the parser of the
remote servent. Also note that the servent must be a pretty old version
because it doesn't return a urn:sha1. For example, if added a filter to
remove all results without urn:sha1 because those cause nothing but
trouble: spam, resume errors, corrupt downloads etc.
