Wow, great job figuring that out!

UTF-8 seems plainly wrong in this context. Surely GetFileAttributes()
etc. don't expect UTF-8, but a localized string.
It's been a while since I've looked at Win32. From what I remember, the
Unicode functions (e.g. GetFileAttributesW) expect a UCS-2 string, so
perhaps you could call those with a (jchar *) and let the platform do the
conversion?

I'd like to see the patch.
