Created by perlbug@mvsnet.org.ua

when executed following code
find(sub {
  return if -d $File​::Find​::name;
  return if ! /$suffixes$/;
  my $name=$File​::Find​::name;
  print 'File​: ';
  print $_;
  print ' Path​: ';
  print $name;
  }, $directory);
with folder containing files named with non-latin characters the output of '$name' contains damaged unicode characters.
If $directory also contains non-latin characters only file names are damaged ($directory part is correct)

with folder containing files named with non-latin characters the output of '$name' contains damaged unicode characters.
If $directory also contains non-latin characters only file names are damaged ($directory part is correct)

This is a general issue with filenames, and not just restricted to
File​::Find. For example the following shows that the returned filename
string isn't UTF-8 encoded​:

  my $f = "file\x{100}";
  open my $fh, '>', $f or die "open​: $!\n";
  close $fh;

  my ($newf) = <file*>;
  use Devel​::Peek;
  Dump $f;
  Dump $newf;

A workaround (if you know that the filenames are UTF8 encoded) is to
UTF-8 decode the returned filename before using it, e.g.​:

  my $name = $_;
  utf8​::decode($name);

I notice that perltodo.pod has this entry​:

  =head2 Unicode and glob()

  Currently glob patterns and filenames returned from File​::Glob​::glob()
  are always byte strings. See L</"Virtualize operating system access">.

and perlrun.pod has this entry​:

  =item B<-C [I<number/list>]>
  ...
  =for todo
  perltodo mentions Unicode in %ENV and filenames. I guess that these will be
  options e and f (or F).
