(That was 11 years ago.)
I'm unable to reproduce this. All characters seem to display
correctly.
Are you still seeing this on a modern version of Emacs? If I don't
hear back from you within a couple of weeks, I'll just close this bug
as unreproducible.
Best regards,
Stefan Kangas

I checked with a few GNU Emacs versions. Even version 23.4 handles the umlauts in file names correctly.

Theory and practice are the same, in theory, but, in practice, they are different.

I don't see any bug here; the accents are displayed on the top of the
character. Could you check again with latest CVS and see if the problem
persists?

What you cite (and see) is what I wrote as the *text* of the file's
name. I cannot copy and paste the *representation* GNU Emacs then
chose – except as a photograph/screen-shot.
With GNU Emacs from one or two days ago it looks a bit better, like
this:

[-- Attachment #2.2: Emacs Umlaute.png --]
[-- Type: image/png, Size: 4586 bytes --]
[-- Attachment #3: Type: text/plain, Size: 1085 bytes --]
As you can see it uses for R, G, B, SPC, æ, Æ, ., t, and x the
correct font:
display: by this font (glyph code)
x:-b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-10-100-75-75-m-60-
iso10646-1 (#x52)
For ä I get:
display: composed to form "ä" (see below)
Composed with the following character(s) "¨" using this font:
x:-mutt-clearlyu-medium-r-normal--17-120-100-100-p-123-iso10646-1
by these glyphs:
[0 1 97 97 7 1 7 7 0 nil]
[0 1 776 776 0 0 5 14 -12 [-5 3 0]]
Character code properties: customize what to show
name: LATIN SMALL LETTER A
general-category: Ll (Letter, Lowercase)
(The non-spacing ¨ is faked here with a spacing one. The *Help*
buffer uses the COMBINING DIAERESIS U+0308 from ClearlyU. Lucida
Typewriter does not have this glyph.)
It would be better GNU Emacs would compose the de-composed characters
and then use the glyphs from the default font.
