If my memory serves me well, SDLIB is hard wired to use CP 850 for translation. Any Unicode characters outside range would be replaced with '_', but I can't be 100% sure since there were several versions of that file system (for hpgcc and later hpgcc3) and can't recall exactly which one ended up compiled into SDLIB.
The last revision made it into newRPL, and this time it supports Unicode, so no more code pages. If there's any special characters, it always creates a LFN, which is Unicode by nature. Reading is also not a problem because the entire calculator OS supports Unicode text in UTF-8, so no translation is needed.
