Jürgen and taazz, The DisableUTF8RTL system indeed is a fall-back for people who cannot use the new improved UTF-8 system. The automatic encoding conversion may do tricks when you still must do explicit conversion to/from UTF-8 using the old clumsy functions. I don't know about all the issues involved. I don't plan to use it myself. It is not part of my interest. The wiki page explaining it should be improved and maintained by people who actually use the system which means Jürgen, taazz, michl and others. Now the wiki page has too few examples.
My interest has been the new UTF-8 system. It works much better than I could imagine. Anybody who plans now to move their code to Lazarus 1.6, please try to isolate Windows codepage conversions into functions. UTF-8 then works automatically like magic outside of those functions.
