The encoding of the filename shouldn't matter. UNIX file names are
just bytestrings where only '/' and '\0' are disallowed.
I'm able to serve a file generated as such:
% filename="$(printf '<\a\a\a\n\t\x8f>')"
% date >$filename
so it should work.
How are you trying to fetch the file? which which client? is the
client correctly percent-encoding/decoding the filenames?
a "good" request should show up in logs like
localhost ::1 - - [30/Jan/2023:19:18:20 +0100] "GET //%3C%07%07%07%0A%09%8F>
HTTP/1.1" 200 29
