The console functions (WriteConsole etc) use the OEM encoding. 
Everything else uses ANSI encoding. In particular, the argv parameter
passed to main uses ANSI encoding. This is true for both "console" and
"GUI" programs.

AFAICT, the only situation where the OEM encoding will make its way
into GRASS is via curses.
