Prince does not work on Windows if path to binary contains non-ASCII characters

Hello,

We think we have found a bug on Windows: prince.exe does not work if the its path contains non-ASCII characters:

~/_local/élé/Prince/bin $ ./prince foo.html
prince: C:\cygwin64\home\nojebar\_local\´┐¢l´┐¢\Prince\license\license.dat: error: can't open input file: No such file or directory
prince: C:\cygwin64\home\nojebar\_local\´┐¢l´┐¢\Prince\license\license.dat: warning: could not load license
prince: foo.html: error: can't open input file: No such file or directory
prince: foo.html: error: could not load input file
prince: error: failed to load all input documents


Can you confirm the bug? Do you know if there are any workarounds? Thank you.

Kind regards,
Nicolas
