Bug description:  Uploaded file name truncated if accent present

Description:
------------
On a standard form upload, if the user uploads a file 
with a name like "�pice.jpg" (with an acute accent on 
the e), PHP reports the $_FILES[0]['name'] as "foo_e", 
dropping the accent and ALL following characters, 
including the suffix.

I understand the perhaps the file upload can't handle 
the accented characters, but it seems incorrect to 
strip off the rest of the filename, including 
characters that are still legitimate.

I don't know if this is a PHP bug or not, but it seems 
very limiting for non-English file uploads, where 
accented characters in a filename are common.

Reproduce code:
---------------
Example: with a page like

<html>
<head>
        <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<form action="test.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="upload">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>

<?
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
        print_r($_FILES);
}
?>

upload a file named "�pice.jpg", and PHP will report the filename as "e".

Expected result:
----------------
I expect $_FILES[0]['name'] to be "�pice.jpg", or at 
least "epice.jpg".

Actual result:
--------------
Filename reported as "e".
