I read his mail again, and found that the bug is not in
chars vs bytes, but columns vs bytes.
So, ja_JP.eucJP was not a good example because, in that
locale, column numbers and bytes are equal.
Please try some UTF-8 locale (e.g. en_US.UTF-8) with Latin-1
filenames. I believe that the current dired will be
confused.

Ah, sure. I blindly thought that the last digits "11" was
not important.
