I suspect you will find that the files are completely usable on OS X from the terminal window but that it fails to work with Finder.
The limitation is in OS X. One of two things is happening: 1. Finder refuses to display any Unicode strings that are not encoded using decomposed form. 2. Finder does display Unicode Strings in composed form but always sends strings back to the file system in decomposed form which results in the file names not being found. The UNIX AFS clients do not perform UTF8 string detection and do not normalize strings for comparison as is performed on Windows. In addition, on Windows, the Explorer Shell always reflects file names back to the file system in the encoding presented by the file system. In my opinion this is what OS X should do but doesn't. A radar should be opened with Apple.
