UNICODE:
- Windows: Can use Unicode, but might only allow "codepages" ... Use
GetProcAddress() to find Unicode entry points on WinNT-based
systems, otherwise try to use a sane codepage.

as a loss.
- OS/2: Codepages. No full Unicode in the filesystem, but we can probably make
a conversion effort.

- Cygwin should use unix/posix and not win32 platform code.
- Expose the archiver registration mechanism to the outside world.
- Find some way to relax or remove the security model for external tools.
- Non-blocking I/O
- mmap() in posix.c
- OSX shouldn't use ~/.app for userdir.
- fscanf and fprintf support in extras dir.

- Can win32.c and pocketpc.c get merged?
- There's so much cut-and-paste between archivers...can this be reduced?
- General code audit.
- Multiple write dirs with mount points?
- Deprecate PHYSFS_setSaneConfig and move it to extras?
