autochdir + encoding=utf8 messes up diff

[Axel Bender]

Given the following .vimrc:

---------------
set autochdir
set encoding=utf-8
---------------

and the following directory/file structure:

------
a\aa
b\bb
------

diffing aa and bb with

------------------
gvim -d a\aa b\bb
------------------

will not perform a diff. Instead message "b\bb [NEW DIRECTORY] is seen.

If either of the settings is omitted, the diff is performed.

Here: Windows 7 64-bit, version 7.4.688 MinGW-w64

Hi Axel!

I can confirm, this bug only affects Windows. Here is patch:


Best,
Christian
