What encoding is the file version.txt? Are you sure that
g_locale_to_utf8 is converting it correctly to UTF-8? Please do the
conversion separately and check the return value (and pass in the
GError parameter instead of NULL, to be able to check for errors).

If you have GTK and Pango installed properly, outputting Chinese (or
Arabic, Hebrew, Russian, Devanagari etc) should "just work".
