> The problem is in insert-directory.  It manually decodes each file
> name which was output by 'ls', and that produces strangely
> inconsistent results when the file name includes raw bytes: sometimes
> we get the 2-byte sequence starting with \300, sometimes the original
> byte survives unchanged, and sometimes I see the sequence \301\200

Can you please try the patch below?  (You will need to re-dump Emacs
after patching files.el.)
