Original submission:

I have a koi8-r locale and some files with russian names. When 
sorting configured as case sensitive, I can see a new russian 
alphabet at the panels :)

I look in source code and found an error - the "strcmp" function 
used for sorting all names, but it's doesn't know about any locale. 
So it should be replaced by something else. For example, "wcscmp".

Here is the patch to correct this problem. It's some big, but I 
think, it's will be work with any locales.

Tested with mc-4.6.2 + utf8 patch in zh_CN.UTF-8 locale. Does not work (should sort Chinese like strcoll, but actually in random order).

Replying to guanx:

zh_CN.UTF-8 locale. Does not work (should sort Chinese).

try in master, i can't test in Chinese i don't speak/read in chinese.
