Subject: 23.0.60; Can't start emacs when filename contains national character
Date: Sat, 29 Mar 2008 03:20:03 +0100

When starting Emacs with "emacs -Q" it crashes if the path to ~/.emacs 
contains a Swedish national character. Running under gdb I get the 
following backtrace:

(gdb) run -Q
Starting program: C:\pf\Emacs\emacs\bin/emacs.exe -Q

Program received signal SIGTRAP, Trace/breakpoint trap.
