In addition to the fact that 8.3 names are an issue themselves as they
might be not present on a particular system, it's about a multibyte name
in your case. So it needs to be encoded and decoded.

Not sure about that and whether it's needed. I'd rather do inside out,
use a non unicode filename with CURL and then move that file into some
unicode name using a cmd script. Or even move it using COM.
