Comment 23 for bug 1785191

@Wayne

I can commit a fix for names like hexapodu_Ā.kicad_pcb.

But I had a look at this issue on Linux, and I find really strange issues:

Inside kicad2step application, wxLogDebug, used a lot of time
in code, just does not work fine.
For instance, on my Kubuntu 14.04 install:
wxLogMessage( "123à" ); generates a segfault.

and wxLogMessage( "file %s", filename);
does not even print a message, if filename contains a "ascii code" between 0x80 and 0xFF

So it could take a bit of time before this issue is fixed.
