Comment 83 for bug 136682

Note that while this patch seems a good improvement for many users, it may not be a complete solution for other users, especially those using NTFS in a "MUI" configuration. Bug #49217 covers some of the charset translation issues that can happen for FAT, and to a significantly lesser degree to NTFS, as a result of assumptions made about the relationship of a filesystem and the internal system locale on legacy systems. While no regressions are anticipated, it may be that some users in certain locales or with certain legacy configurations may continue to experience a subset of this issue (especially if the system under consideration is not a native NTFS install). This comment should not affect any decision on promotion of the package as a Stable Release Update.
