Ok, lots of ugly Pointer typecasts. Doable, yes.
Not necessarily. You can use SetCodePage() to change the code page of
the string without triggering a codepage conversion by using the third
parameter which is a Boolean that tells the function to either do a
conversion (True; default) or not (False). You'd then need to declare
the UTF8* routines as RawByteString and explicitly handle the type
conversion.
That's at least more officially supported than ugly pointer typecasts...
(Note: it might be that some details don't work as I described them; if
in doubt ask on fpc-pascal please)
