Description

Problem: the old java.io API cannot handle filenames that have a bad encoding, ie. iso-8859-1 encoded umlauts when running with LC_ALL=*.UTF-8.

To reproduce the problem do:

git clone https://github.com/jjYBdx4IL/filenameenc.git
cd filenameenc
mvn test
mvn clean # <- produces an error when trying to remove target/

The example itself demonstrates the problem and shows a solution by using java.nio.Files.newDirectoryStream().
