Which functions are you asking about?  UTF-8 is character data, so yes,
utf-8 strings are accepted virtually everywhere.  Conversion is handled
by the apr_xlate functions which is a wrapper around iconv.  iconv has
been hacked for apr portability in the apr_iconv repository, although 
that subproject is far from complete.  Your question is rather vague,
please elaborate.

Please don't email APR API questions @httpd, the dev@apr.apache.org list 
is for APR library discussion.
