Subject: require fails when requiring scripts with utf-8 filenames.

Hi,  I have a small problem with requiring files with utf-8 character in
the filename.
I have a small script which does nothing but require another file that
has some norwegian utf-8 characters in its filename.

shouldnt this work nicely?

My enviroment is:
mac  os x 10.6.3
ruby-1.9.1-p378

locale is set to:
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Textmate is set to utf-8.
puts __ENCODING__ says UTF-8:
hmm. everything seems to be set correctly but when I try require
"淡l淡l淡l淡l淡l" it fails with:

ruby-1.9.1-p378 > require "淡l淡l淡l淡l"
Encoding::CompatibilityError: incompatible character encodings: UTF-8
and US-ASCII
  from (irb):1:in `require'
  from (irb):1
  from /usr/local/rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.1-p378/bin/irb:17:in `<main>'

and 淡l淡l淡l淡l.rb is simple:
# encoding: utf-8
puts "淡l淡l淡l淡l"

Any suggestions? isnt utf-8 filenames supported? surely it must be?
thanx!
