Calling external commands fails on Emacs under Windows 11 if
`default-directory' contains non-ASCII characters. Steps to reproduce:
0. Start emacs -Q
1. Create directory C:/zażółćgęśląjaźń.
2. Enter the directory with dired.
3. Press M-! and try executing any command.
4. Minibuffer shows error message: "Spawning child process: Exec format error"
This is on Emacs build downloaded from
gnu.org/software/emacs/.

Thanks, so I'm therefore closing this bug report.
