That won't work until the string.c functions (left,right,mid,asc,chr,etc.)
are fixed for multibyte using function mbrtowc, wcrtomb and mbrlen. 
All changes have to be dependent on macro HAVE_MBRTOWC (see string.c).
If you want to give it a try...

Useful documentation:

Regexps might be tough to change.

That is now fixed. It surely never worked before.
