I see. It's quite a huge change, that's probably why nobody found
the time to review it, yet.

While I think these things should eventually be done, I don't think
they are that related to import.c.

If W9x support gets dropped, we can rewrite PC/getpathp.c to use the
Unicode API throughout; that would allow to put non-ANSI path
names onto PYTHONPATH.

Making os.environ support Unicode is entirely different isusue.
I would like to see os.environ return Unicode if the key is Unicode;
another option would be to introduce os.uenviron.

Martin
