$ touch ρ

? ρ
$ ls | hexdump -C
00000000 cf 0a cf 81 0a
dash "cut" the "0x81" from the "0xcf81" representation of the Greek
character rho, and so it created another file named "0xcf".
This only happens for a few utf-8 characters, not for all of them.
Relevant bug report:

Please CC me if possible, I'm not on the list.
Kind regards,

This bug is fixed in git commit f8231aea37e921492fc7fbd972385ab5b90e8627
which is not in any dash release yet.
The patch should apply to older dash versions also.
