It turns out that although wxMac doesn't seem to have this set,
the proper encoding when using Unix functions on the Mac is
UTF-8.  When I call "mkdir" and pass it a UTF-8 string containing
an umlaut, it succeeds and the folder looks correct in the Finder
(though surprisingly, not in the Terminal - "ls" fails to parse
the UTF-8 correctly).

Unfortunately the string that comes back from a wxFileDialog is
MacRoman - the default Mac encoding.

Matt, any ideas?
