This may not be PHP's fault. Re-reading your first post I see that your
win-app does not indicate UTF-8 in the HTTP headers. That may mean that
the byte stream is wrong before PHP even sees it. But I'm just guessing.

You may want to subscribe to the PHP General mailing list and ask your
question there. Send a mail to:

<php-general-subscribe(at)lists(dot)php(dot)net>
