This one is already reported on coreutils:
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?msg=2;bug=7574

The problem is with numbers higher than /0377; echo and printf consumes all 3 numbers, but it is not 8-bit number. For example:
$ echo -e '\0610'; printf '\610 %b\n' '\610 \0610'
Should output:
10
10 10 10
instead of
�
� � �

So, if the first octal digit is > 3, use up to 2 digits.

Patch follows for echo and printf. Is anything else counting octal values?
