For standard controls like buttons it should never be a problem since
there is both an ASCII and Unicode win proc, so in a pure ASCII app we
should never do the conversion.  I think the problem is that the
dialog code does a CreateWindowW, so the button is Unicode even though
the app does everything in ASCII. I guess we'll have to maintain both
A and W win procs inside each window, not only inside the class.
