There is a bug in GTK if it sends ? for unsupported characters,
that should be fixed IMHO.

If I start a GTK application in a directory with a name in a non-Unicode
charset and then bring up the GTK file selection widget, the application
will crash.  GTK considers this an error by the user for not having file
and directory names in Unicode.  I think this situation is similar.
