If the bug happens only for such filenames, I agree that
it's not worth working on it anymore.

This statement reads that any character encoded by multiple
bytes in a filename causes a trouble, for instance any CJK
characters in CJK locales or any non-ASCII chars in UTF-8
locale. As you can use ja_JP.eucJP locale, could you please
try some Japanese file name?

Hmmm, then, it's strange that "ls (fileutils) 4.1" works,
but "ls (coreutils) 4.5" doesn't.
