I think you're saying that today, with codepage:utf8, it is able to get sizes for files using non-ANSI characters, but if codepage is removed, it would not be able to do so unless it called setlocale(). Is that right?Not exactly. However, assuming you have a file using characters which are not in your current ANSI codeset, then you could only manipulate that file when setting LANG="xx_YY.UTF-8", and only in applications which call setlocale().
...unless Cygwin itself would call setlocale().
