[New-bugs-announce] [issue10081] 'import' operator doesn't work with unicode non 7-bit ASCII module names (OS: windows)

New submission from Valery Lesin <valery.lesin at gmail.com>:

OS: windows

The attempt to import module with non 7-bit ASCII name results in 
'ImportError: No module named <module name>' exception.


Some thoughts: import.c uses functions like fopen, stat and FindFirstFile which wouldn't work correctly with non 7-bit ASCII filenames in Windows.
