Summary: os.chmod does not work with a unicode filename

Initial Comment:
I have a filename that contains Kanji characters and I'm 
trying change the permissions on the file.

I am running Python 2.3.1 on Windows 2000.  Also I 
have the japanese language pack installed so that I can 
view the kanji characters in Windows explorer.


>>> part
u'\u5171\u6709\u3055\u308c\u308b.txt'
>>> os.chmod(part, 0777)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument: '?????.txt'
>>>

I attached the above named file for you to test against.

Thanks.
