Hi Bruno,

Your patch had the unfortunate side-effect of breaking output for almost all resource strings used in regsvr32. The problem is that the names of DLLs and input commands are still in ASCII.

Fixing the issue requires more work, as regsvr32 needs to be converted to Unicode first.

I wrote patches to do that last year, but Alexandre felt they weren't needed. He said something like, "If it isn't broken, don't fix it". But now there is a problem, as translations are broken.

I've rebased the patches against the latest commit base and uploaded them to my Dropbox account. [1]

Feel free to use them. Or, if you like, I'll resend them to wine-patches.
