Thanks for your bug report! I'll look into it... .
Created attachment 46403 [details] [review] Proposed patch (against HEAD). Maybe you could try out whether that patch helps? I've never dealt with filename encoding issues before and fear I might break anything.
The patch at bug 314538 may fix this issue.
Marking patch as obsolete.
Going to mark as duplicate. If someone can supply an example and test the current master that would be great. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 314538 ***
