How to enable language(utf8) support for proftpd?

GiorgosI

Basic Pleskian
Plesk 9.5.4, CentOS 5.6 x86_64

When someone uploads files with greek names through ftp, the uploaded filenames are altered to questionmarks, for example ?????????.jpg and they cannot be browsed.
If we upload the same file from Plesk's File Manager, it is not altered to questionmarks and can be browsed.

The version of the proftpd is:
# rpm -qa | grep -i 'proftpd'
psa-proftpd-xinetd-1.3.2e-cos5.build95101209.08
psa-proftpd-1.3.2e-cos5.build95101209.08

I found that proftpd needs the mod_lang module enabled in order to be able to handle utf8 characters:
http://www.proftpd.org/docs/modules/mod_lang.html
This module is not enabled with proftpd coming with Plesk (the '-' below means it is not enalbed):
# proftpd -V | grep -i 'nls'
- NLS support

Is there any way to enable language module for proftpd?
