Just to clarify my position.
Back in April 12th 2005 I reported a problem with foreign letters in filenames.
See the Archive :

For details.
Basically I found that Rsync would take a character like this : L
ie U+0141 Latin L with stroke through it and translate it to a plain ASCII L U+004C. (My email client doesn't support >7bit chars).
So no wonder it would claim the file was missing as it seems to me to be accessing the name, storing it incorrectly as a ASCII value and then when it uses it, it discovers it can't find the original name and no wonder if it's mangled it.
