This wiki article says:
QuoteAs of Lazarus 0.9.28 the Windows and Windows CE interfaces
support Unicode fully.Well, things like "Memo.LoadFromFile" will
result in a runtime error if you'll try to load a file named like
this: "ファイル.txt" Also, you just have to look at the code for
"FileOpen", "CreateFile" and many other functions to clearly tell that
they won't work with Unicode file names.
All tested with todays nightly build.
I hope it means that 0.9.28 is not quite there yet and by the time
it's ready all these issues will be solved.

I am afraid, this not fixable by the lazarus team, but needs a fix in
the FPC RTL. See http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=12923

Oh, I see... Good thing this is already in the bugtracker.

Well, this particular issue is not in the bug tracker.
TStrings.LoadFromFile() with a non-ansi name.
