cannot read non-ASCII output messages

Description

The changes in exent.c at changeset:38009 break non-ASCII output messages. Some Japanese compilers output diagnostic messages in Japanese (non-ASCII), but we cannot read them. This problem is caused by the following codes: 

                    /* clean up non-ascii chars */
                    int i;
                    for ( i = 0; i < bytesInBuffer; ++i )
                    {
                        if ((unsigned char)ioBuffer[i] < 1 ||
                            (unsigned char)ioBuffer[i] > 127 )
                        {
                            ioBuffer[i] = '?';
                        }
                    }

Could you remove it?

(In [49882]) On Windows don't limit bjam output to ASCII as some tools output characters in extended character sets. (fixes #1576)
