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
instead of a lone \300 in the file name. I'm trying to understand
what's going on and find a solution to that.
CC'ing Handa-san in the hope that he could comment on this or provide
some suggestions.
