+German umlaute quite likely french, italian, spanish did
+not work due QFile::[decode,encode]Name did call QString
+local8Bit,fromLocal8Bit which plainly tried to use utf8
+encoding even if not useful. So a filename got changed
+and QFileInfo recognized the file not beeing present anymore...
+which lead to files not be shown.
+Also with Year-Names problem exists as the base system sent
+it encoded upstream.
+
+If you want to have UTF-8 encoding use LC_CTYPE as always and
+QTextCodec::codecForLocale will use the right UTF-8 encoding.
+
+As fallback the old behaviour was preserved
