1. emacs -Q on macOS
2. evaluate (set-language-environment "Japanese")
3. visit the directory where SKK-JISYO.L exists (ex. ~/emacs-29.2/leim/SKK-DIC/ )
4. type C-x RET c to run universal-coding-system-argument command, and specify japanese-iso-8bit-unix as the coding-system
5. type M-x grep to run grep, and specify "grep --color=auto -nH --null -e この辞書は SKK-JISYO.L" as the command-args
=> grep fails with "grep: illegal byte sequence"
On emacs 29.1, the grep runs successfully with the same procedures.
If the command-args is "LANG=C grep --color=auto -nH --null -e この辞書は SKK-JISYO.L", the grep runs successfully.

I cannot reproduce this, but I'm not on macOS.
We made a change in msterm.m between Emacs 29.1 and Emacs 29.2, which
might be responsible for this: we now set the Emacs locale
differently. But I'm not sure what you see means there's a bug in
Emacs, because it could well be a bug in Grep that you have on macOS;
for example, this page:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19242275/re-error-illegal-byte-sequence-on-mac-os-x
clearly hints that this might be the case, and that setting LANG=C is
indeed the right solution for this.

Sorry, that was supposed to be nsterm.m.

On japanese-iso-8bit-unix (= eucJP), この辞書は is 0xa4b3 0xa4ce 0xbcad 0xbdf1 0xa4cf,
and 0xa4b3 0xa4ce 0xbcad 0xbdf1 0xa4cf is illegal byte sequence on UTF-8.
On UTF-8 mode, macOS grep signals "grep: illegal byte sequence" error for the byte sequence,
but LANG=C mode or LANG is not specified, macOS grep accepts the byte sequence.

emacs-29.1 executes /usr/bin/grep without LANG,
but emacs-29.2 seems to execute /usr/bin/grep with LANG=en_US.UTF-8.
I wonder /usr/bin/grep should be invoked in non UTF-8 mode, because emacs might pass non UTF-8 byte sequence to /usr/bin/grep.

The fact that LANG could cause this is IMO a bug in macOS's Grep.
There's no problem for Emacs to put LANG into the environment, but
Grep can be invoked on several very different files, with no single
LANG that fits all of them. Grep should not use LANG at all.
> I wonder /usr/bin/grep should be invoked in non UTF-8 mode, because emacs might pass non UTF-8 byte sequence to /usr/bin/grep.
Illegal byte sequence is not limited to UTF-8. There really is no
good solution for this, except in Grep itself. Which is why I don't
think this is an Emacs bug.

If LANG=locale grep [-e pattern] [file ...] is specified, macOS grep checks the consistency between the locale and the byte sequence of the pattern,
but does not check the consistency between the locale and the byte sequence of the file contents.
(Please see *1 below)
This consistency check feature can be disabled if LANG=C is specified or LANG is not specified.
emacs-29.1 executes /usr/bin/grep without LANG (*2),
but emacs-29.2 seems to execute /usr/bin/grep with LANG=en_US.UTF-8 (*3).
I wonder that in some cases emacs should invoke subprocesses with LANG=C is specified or LANG is not specified,
and this grep issue might be one of the case.
