That was tested using NTFS, but the same would apply to FAT32, exFAT,
and UDF since they all use Unicode [1]. CreateFile[A|W] wraps the
NtCreateFile system call. The NT executive is Unicode, so the system
call receives the filename using a Unicode-only OBJECT_ATTRIBUTES [2]
record. I can't say what an arbitrary non-Microsoft filesystem will do
with the U+30FB character when it processes the IRP_MJ_CREATE. I was
only concerned with ANSI<=>Unicode conversion that's implemented in
the ntdll.dll runtime library.
