How it can be solved? Me too! A similar issue is discussed on the ocaml-i18n list[0]. Basically I requested that we make all ML files UTF-8 (assuming the locale is UTF-8[1]). This way too you might be able to define functions with Russian (or Chinese, or Japanese, or whatever names). The issue was raised about how to tell the difference between a "lowercase" function name and an "uppercase" variant name in Japanese :-) Rich.
