Actually, I'm unable to replicate the error with some test files with the
exact same names.

Just to test the escaping, I tried creating this dir:

(Word) Word Word Word--Word & Word (Word Word.).ext
id&"id&
id&"id&`id`

I was expecting to find some shell-escapes, so I threw those last two in for 
good measure.

I was able to create and delete those filenames on the target properly.

So I didn't find the shell escape I was looking for.

This time it failed when trying to delete a file containing the word 
G\#303\#266del

I wonder if there's some issues with Unicode...
