Description:
My MySQL WorkBench is on "C:\Documents and Settings\Mikaël\Bureau\MySQLWorkBench" directory. When i want to run it, it crash and popup a windows with this text :

====
Title : Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Runtime Error!
Program:

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.
====

BUT, when i copy the directory in "C:\MySQLWorkBench" directory, all works :)

I think the problem is the special character (ë) in my first name "Mikaël" 

How to repeat:
Unzip "mysql-workbench-oss-5.0.17a-rc-win32-noinstall.zip" in a directory with a special character (like "C:\répertoire\" for example) and run Mysql WorkBench.
