Hello!

There are routines missing that create the correct Unicode file names. In Mac OS X' HFS+ they are saved decomposed, i.e. ä becomes a¨, which is re-united in Finder or ls, but Emacs.app does not do that job:

                character: a (97, #o141, #x61)
        preferred charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV))
               code point: 0x61
                   syntax: w    which means: word
                 category: a:ASCII l:Latin r:Japanese roman
              buffer code: #x61
                file code: not encodable by coding system utf-8
                  display: composed to form "ä" (see below)
             Unicode data:
                     Name: LATIN SMALL LETTER A
                 Category: Letter, Lowercase
          Combining class: Ll
            Bidi category: Ll
                Uppercase: A
                Titlecase: A
        
        Composed with the following character(s) "" by the rule:
                (?a (tc . bc) ?)
        The component character(s) are displayed by these fonts (glyph codes):
a: -apple-NimbusMonL-medium-r-normal--11-110-75-75-m-70-iso10646-1 (#x61) : -apple-NimbusMonL-medium-r-normal--11-110-75-75-m-70-iso10646-1 (#x308)

so that file names can render unreadable in dired (notice that the month's abbreviated name is correctly spelled!):
