Thanks for the patch; I'm pretty busy this weekend but I'll try to roll
out a new cygutils release Monday or so.

If anybody wants to investigate the following over the weekend:

TODO (call for patches):
================================
* Update (some?) utilities to handle unicode filenames, similar to
  IWAMURO Motonori's work on cygstart. Which utilities need this?
  mkshortcut and readshortcut probably. Any others?

* unicode support in putclip/getclip (aside from the suggestion to
  just replace them with shell scripts that use >/dev/clipboard and
  </dev/clipboard, which wouldn't be callable outside a cygwin shell)

I'd be grateful...
