For compatibility.

I will not change filesystem encoding in Windows in 1.9 series.
In all methods which returns filenames, the default encoding
of returned value must be filesystem encoding.
So, if someone want to get filename with another encoding, he/she
should specify the encoding by some way.
Of course, it is necessary to decide the "some way" of each
methods.

Yes, I know it.
This is the problem of globbing.
I've already decided to solve this problem 1.9.3 or later.
