Comment (by teor):

 I wonder if this happens because our Windows builds don't -DUNICODE by
 default?

 Or I wonder if we are getting the wrong language ID: maybe we should just
 let Windows decide for us:
 {{{
 If you pass in zero, FormatMessage looks for a message for LANGIDs in the
 following order:

     Language neutral
     Thread LANGID, based on the thread's locale value
     User default LANGID, based on the user's default locale value
     System default LANGID, based on the system default locale value
     US English
 }}}
