Bug Description
My system is using the fr_CA locale with the ISO-8859-1 character set. In gnumeric, when I try to save a file in a directory that contains non-ASCII characters, I get an 'Error' dialog with the following message: "Not a valid UTF-8 filename."
It still creates a file in the directory but it is empty.
If I use the 'Create directory' function in the file browser dialog, the directory is created with UTF-8 encoding (it should be created in the same charset than my locale.)
Example directory:
$ export LC_CTYPE=
$ mkdir ~/Répertoire
