Would this be fixed in time for PHP 7?

As a workaround, you can trick php if you allow using ShortName instead of LongName.

You'll need to tweak tsrm_realpath_r.

I'll post a patch to avoid this issue.

Thanks

This is not a duplicate bug of the unicode paths support.

The problem here, in this exact (maybe other encoding could be affected but same 
cause then) issue, is that the CRT call FindFirstFileW instead of FindFirstFileA, 
despite that _UNICODE is defined.

Patch on its way.

Yes, but there are different things to add support for full fledged unicode names on windows and
support only for shortened 8.3 dos paths that have no unicode chars in them. I thought that such
names would by completely transparent to php like they are for 16 apps. This is not exact duplicate.

This the general issue with non 7-bit encoded filenames, so duplicate of bug 
#64699, see also bug #61315.
