Description:
------------
We upload files with winscp to our server.
On the server we have an script which imports these files.

Some of the files have german umlauts.
These are somewhat wrongly encoded.
When I try to use glob to read all files in an dir with such an file this file will be silently ignored.

Test script:
---------------
> ls -l
total 972
