No, it's not a bug. It's a dirty trick to reduce memory usage.
For filenames in English, their real names and their UTF-8 display names
are completely the same. So there is no need to store two copies of the
same string.
That's the purpose of this hack, to share real base names and display names
whenever possible. This is not a bug, but I did not write good comments for
this previously. :-(
