text encoding gotcha?

[Alex Rice]

Suddenly when I do a Win32 standalone build, when I run it on windows, 
some fields are all garbled looking. Every other character is a box- 
signifying maybe this is using a wide character encoding. This is 
bizarre- I'm not using Unicode at all. What the heck could be going on? 
Is it possible to disable the automatic MacToISO encoding for fields 
which happens when you launch a Mac-built standalone on Windows?
