Yes, this is a known issue with dd as with many other coreutils programs. Strictly speaking as I understand it, it is not a deviation from POSIX, since POSIX does not require support for locales with multibyte encodings. Still, it would be nice to fix dd at some point, although it'd be a pain to do correctly and efficiently and it's long been low priority since hardly anybody needs or uses this feature on any platform.
