lfs can't use UTF-8 or UTF-16.
On Windows, Quylthulg [1] has all the functionality of lfs and supports
UTF-8 / UTF16.

UTF-8 only, also it's rather hastily hacked together and may be
overhauled at any time... there are stuff I don't fully trust in
there, but I have been using it to synchronize to Flash drives and
external HDDs for several months now.
I would rather a more mainstream module like LuaFileSystem pick up
support for Unicode; this would ensure at least some level of
long-term support or dependability.
Another way would be to run Lua on Cygwin 1.7... it should work I
suppose but I haven't gotten around installing Cygwin 1.7 yet.
