Wget for Windows unicode issue

[Leonid Pavel]

I'm trying to use wget for windows with unicode characters and getting 
issues with filename creation.

Passing in "wget http://example.com/á.png"; directly works fine, however 
if I put the URL in a UTF-8 encoded file and run "wget -i myfile.txt", 
it downloads the file as "A¡.png" which is obviously incorrect.

Setting the file encoding as UTF-16 / UCS-2 just breaks entirely (tries 
to make a request to a gibberish URL)

However writing the file as ANSI/ASCII works correctly. This works for 
my example, but for characters that are not able to be represented as 
ASCII characters will surely fail.

Is this not possible to fix? Why does mingw not take this into account?
