Actually I have "Set local environment variables on startup" checked.
I also have "Character encoding: Unicode (UTF-8)".
I use English as my preferred language and Norway as region.

Normally I run Wireshark.app generated from 'make osx-install', and
getenv("LANG") returns ".UTF-8". No luck with rev < 37812.
When running from command line with LANG=no_NO.UTF-8 I get this:
(process:65298): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
, but I get a correct error message with rev < 37812 and "æøå.pcap" or
"Проверка.pcap" as filename.
So; if I run with a UTF-8 locale the g_locale_to_utf8() will not do
any conversion, and when running with a locale without UTF-8 (or not
legal) we get the error in bug 5715.
The bug was reported for Windows, but I don't know how it works there.
I have tested on OSX and Ubuntu Linux.
Maybe we should include the locale in our about box?
We may use it in bug reports.
