Hello!

When I launch GNU Emacs in an ISO Latin environment (env  
LC_CTYPE=de_DE.ISO8859-15 LANG=de_DE.ISO8859-15 /usr/local/bin/ 
emacs-23.1.50 -Q &) and display in dired a directory with entries  
from some month of March the "Mär" abbrevation for the German month  
name "März" is displayed as M\344r. C-u C-x = on this \344 reveals:

	        character: \344 (4194276, #o17777744, #x3fffe4)
	preferred charset: eight-bit (Raw bytes 128-255)
	       code point: 0xE4
	           syntax: w 	which means: word
	      buffer code: #xE4
	        file code: not encodable by coding system iso-latin-9-unix
	          display: no font available

The dired buffer has a 0 as encoding indicator. In ISO Latin 1 or 15  
encodings LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH DIAERESIS is \344 = 228 = 0xE4 = U 
+00E4 a valid character and not some raw "eight-bit" entity. Could be  
this prevents proper display:

In *shell* buffer both Apple's ls and GNU's gls display:

Here the ä is described as:

	        character: ä (228, #o344, #xe4)
	preferred charset: iso-8859-15 (ISO/IEC 8859/15)
	       code point: 0xE4
	           syntax: w 	which means: word
	         category: .:Base, j:Japanese, l:Latin
	      buffer code: #xC3 #xA4
	        file code: #xE4 (encoded by coding system iso-latin-9-unix)
	          display: by this font (glyph code)
	    x:-b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-10-100-75-75-m-60- 
iso10646-1 (#xE4)

The buffer's encoding is "0" as well, i.e., ISO Latin 1 or 15.

BTW, the issue is correct in UTF-8 environment.abbreviation
