Are you sure it's not your filesystem that forbids those characters?
MacOS X can use ufs, right?  Does it allow those characters there?

Which characters, exactly, anyways?

Its the characters 'äöü' which are in the latin1 table at 228,246,252. The filesystem is capable of these characters but it uses UTF-8 to encode them. I use HFS+ and have no ufs formatted drives on hand, so I can't test it at the moment.
