Yes it does fail with "make check": make[4]: Entering directory '/home/mike/tmp/texinfo/tp/tests' /usr/bin/perl ./../maintain/copy_change_file_name_encoding.pl ./input/included_latîn1.texi . could not copy ./input/included_latîn1.texi: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character I suspect it should be possible to catch this error from the Perl script and at least provide a warning that it was unable to create the non-UTF8 file name.
