POSIX.1-2017 3.282 Portable Filename Character Set consists of the classical Latin alphabet, 0~9, <period>, <underscore>, and <hyphen-minus>. a filename consisting of the UTF-8 byte sequence 0xc2 0xa3 (£) may be disallowed by some implementations but it is unlikely that the implementation can arbitrarily reinterpret the byte sequence and cause the test to fail.

The original message is not mine so I'm not sure what it referred to it might be that arguments are passed down the the program being invoked without interpretation, thus the filename would be UTF-8 encoded since that is what mri-utf8.test is encoded in. This would fail on Windows where filename must be UTF-16 and the output redirection of the earlier line would have created a filename in UTF-16.

I'll let Owen confirm.
