That was the problem. My locale is fr_CA.utf8 and the localized log message seems to be the source of the bad characters. Not the filenames. Here's the hack I added to my backup script to fix this: export LANG=en_US.utf8 export LANGUAGE= export LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8" export LC_NUMERIC="en_US.utf8" export LC_TIME="en_US.utf8" export LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8" export LC_MONETARY="en_US.utf8" export LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8" export LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8 export LC_NAME="en_US.utf8" export LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8" export LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8" export LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.utf8" export LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8" export LC_ALL= With that hack, everything works fine.
