Seems you're right.  See below.

I just now used TextEdit to creat a text with the filename

xxx-é-ï-ē-ĭ-ǫḥ.txt

(the xxx- prefix only so I could access it using wildcards in my shell)

; echo xxx-*.txt | od -t a
0000000    x   x   x   -   e  cc  81   -   i  cc  88   -   e  cc  84   -
0000020    i  cc  86   -   o  cc  a8   h  cc  a3   .   t   x   t  nl
