Description:
------------
See bug #38471 first (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=38471)

As stated there, current PHP versions don't support fgetcsv() with multibyte support in a useable way.

Considering the increasing use of UTF-8, IMO it should be clearly stated in the documentation that support concerning multibyte encodings is not yet avail and anyone using such encodings is way better off implementing their own way of parsing CSV files than using fgetcsv().

All PHP functions (except special) work with bytes, not characters. It wouldn't change before PHP 6.
