Author: STINNER Victor (haypo) *  Date: 2011-07-15 15:36  
Use >L"" CONSTANT< to decode a byte string to a character string doesn't work with non-ASCII strings. _Py_char2wchar() should be used instead: see for example this fix, commit 5b6e13b6b473. 

This is in reference to getpath.patch.  I have no need to support internationalized versions of the constant strings my patch addresses, so Stinner's commit is overkill for me.
