Perl builtins use the (A)NSI version of API functions

Thank you! This is some how inspiring. Now I can do this :

use Win32;
use Storable;
my $file = Win32::GetShortPathName('X:\Some\Unicode\Path\\'); # it giv
+es me a 8.3 path
print -e $file; # Got it!
store {}, "$file/Storable.sto"; # Done!

The only draw back for now is the path/file must existing, so that the FS can "assign" the 8.3 location.
