Obviously the file access of the ResourcManager fails. AFAIK it uses
SvFileStreams for this. PL told me that these streams nowadays also use OSL
(otherwise using them would be a bug IMHO). It seems that osl has problems with
Thai characters in file names.
Comment 2 hennes.rohling 2005-11-10 15:16:53 UTC 
Besides that Win XP and espacially NTFS support complete Unicode filesnames 
there is still many code that converts filenames using system codepage. The 
system codepage is always the codepage corresponding with the native language 
of the OS not the selected locale.

Therefore using file names or paths with special characters is only supported if the 
native language of the OS uses a compatible codepage.
