The POSIX APIs on Mac OS X expect UTF-8 paths. The above isn't UTF-8.

Try the following which is the same in UTF-8...

MacPro:~ shawnce$ python -c
'open("working_hello\xc2\xaa\xc2\xbb\xc3\x8cworld", "w")'; ls -l |
grep working_hello
-rw-r--r--   1 shawnce  shawnce     0 Feb 28 08:47 working_helloª»Ìworld

...and fs_usage while trying both of the above...

MacPro:~ shawnce$ sudo fs_usage | grep hello
Password:
08:47:50  open              working_helloª»Ìworld
                                   0.000088   Python
08:47:50  listxattr         ./working_helloª»Ìworld
                                  0.000008   ls
