I could swallow it more easily if it were the opposite, i.e. the String 
type is misinterpreted and UTF8String is properly handled.

But what happens is that the String type is handled correctly, while 
UTF8String is not. IOW the compiler is told what to expect from a string 
and it messes it up.

Moreover calling   SetMultiByteConversionCodePage(CP_UTF8) at program 
startup doesn't change a thing: String type is correct, UTF8String type 
is wrong.

fpc bug?
