[p4] Performing difference and merge operations on Unicode (UTF-16) files

Is anyone successfully  performing diff and merge operations on Unicode
(UTF-16) files?

My host and client are both Windows Server 2003 R2, I have switched the
server with -ix, and my environment variables are P4CHARSET=utf16 and
P4COMMANDCHARSET=winansi.

I would like to be able to use the Unicode filetype, but when I do, the
files get corrupted upon retrieval.  Any suggestions?  I've read the tech
note, but there appears to be something missing.
