Description

The attached script fails to successfully walk directories that have unicode characters in them. For example, this path:

iPhoto Library/Originals/2006/23 août 2006/IMG_0013.JPG

Fails with this error:

/Volumes/Users/roberto/Shell/find-photos.rb:237:in `main': No such file or directory - No such file or directory - /Volumes/Users/roberto/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals/2006/23 ao????t 2006/IMG_0013.JPG (Errno::ENOENT)
  from /Volumes/Users/roberto/Shell/find-photos.rb:235:in `each'

We're obviously not decoding/encoding a string correctly somewhere and the unicode chars are demolished as a result.

Please note that MacRuby 0.5b2 has a similar issue so I have opened a similar ticket there.

Though this one is older, JRUBY-3379 has a few more comments, so I'm closing this one.
