--------------------------------------------------------------

There is very little we can do because Java uses the ANSI version of Windows APIs to load DLLs. OpenJDK team needs to change that.
The only workaround we can provide is to add the exploded directory with native libraries, but still if you put Maven into a dir with non-ASCII chars it will fail anyway.
Alternatively, one can disable Jansi through a system property or provide a directory yourself and pass that to Maven -- all workarounds.

At the end, Windows is a terrible development OS with old cruft.
