Thanks for working on this.  

I'm wondering if we can have a good (not just watching errno) method for
the caller to tell if this has occurred.  My hope is that we can setup
our name mangling code to mangle all names that do not perfectly convert
to UCS2.  (With the natural fast-paths for ASCII).  This would ensure we
don't give these 'half converted' names to clients, much as we do not
give other 'bad' names.

Similarly, fnmatch()/strcasecmp should use this in determining if a
string matches.
