revOpenDatabase & umlauts (was: revDataFromQuery and umlauts)

Next problem - if I feed revOpenDatabase a filepath that contains any
umlauts etc, I get "Database Error: Unable to open the database file"
even though I've just done a successful check for the existence of the
file.
Remove the UTF8 characters from the path and it works fine.
OS X 10.5.2
Rev Studio 2.9.0 dp1
Any known workarounds? All I can find in the QCC is #4897 for creating
files, nothing about revOpenDatabase failing.
Thanks in advance,
Ian
P.S. This is the code:
if there is a file tLibPath then
get revOpenDatabase("sqlite",tLibpath,,,,)
put it into tTemp
set the propApDBID of stack "apertureLib" to tTemp
return true
else
answer "no db file found"
return "Library cannot be found!"
end if
