The largest problem I see with your suggestion - "have the user select
the code-page" - is, that this is a choice they have never been required
to make before. Under Windows they are unlikely to have come across this
- their administrator may have, but the average end-user has not.

I suppose that an added command-line switch for the code page would be
one work-around.

Another would be to leave file-names alone altogether and work on the
actual structure of the drive, that is links and cross-links, rather
than file-names.

We could repair those only if they fell outside "of their box" if you
like, but I've not looked at the code in a little while, so my memory on
the issue is not fresh.
