I think that's true: MacOS / HFS+ seems to expect file names to be
"decomposed unicode" in UTF-8. (I gather that means that accents are
separated from their characters.) In the past I've managed to
convert Unicode strings to usable file names by doing something like
this in Perl:
$file = Encode::encode("UTF8",
Unicode::Normalize::decompose($unicode_string));
