One-liner to reproduce the bug (preferably run it in an empty directory): perl -E 'mkdir pack "h*", "60ba"'; perl6 -e 'dir; say ‘hello’' Result: Malformed UTF-8 at line 1 col 2 in block <unit> at -e line 1 It should not die. Such file (or directory) exists and all operations with it should work. I've reproduced that on linux with ext4 filesystem. ugexe confirmed it. It was reported that this bug is not reproducible with that one-liner on OS X: <ParsonsNose> AlexDaniel I get no errors. it just makes a directory called ^F%AB/ .. Windows gives no error, and doesn't appear to make the directory See also this: http://irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2016-03-07#i_12150444
