We would have to link in a compatibility layer, more impacts unknown.
Unicode on 9x is really a PITA, if it was easy we would have done it
earlier.
Besides, apparently there's no developer who could code and test it. And
this licensing crap doesn't make it easier.
So our advice is: if you can't avoid M$, definitely please do avoid 9x/ME.
