Hi~

I'm using zh_CN.GBK as my locales, since it's the common choice in our
community.  In past, I set G_FILENAME_ENCODING=@local to make filename 
encoding be locale-dependent not UTF-8.  However, when I update glib to 
2.6 today, this setting caused many problems.  For example, the Gnome 
has a annoyed behavior.  When I select any element from Gnome menu, it 
reports:
Cannot launch icon
Details: Text was empty (or contained only whitespace)

And click item in nautilus will make nautilus crashed.
