 If one tries to access locked file on Windows with RU_ru locale, he'll get
 an exception with "отказано в доступе" (access denied) returned by its
 what() method. It's written in 1251 encoding, and it's very inconvenient
 to work with. I think, that there should be at least wwhat() method to get
 wstring of exception in Unicode.
