On the Mac and on Windows the filesystem always uses Unicode to represent filenames (Mac as UTF-8, Windows as USC-2/UTF-16), so the LANG setting only applies to the client IO there and never to the paths.
On the unixes paths don't have a specific encoding -paths consists of bytes-, so the LANG setting applies to path names too.
In this case a file on disk has a path that can't be interpreted by the current LANG setting. (E.g. utf-8 works with lead and follow bytes for multibyte characters.. if the first byte of a multibyte character is a follow-byte it's encoding is invalid). This is probably caused by saving files with names in one encoding (E.g. ISO-8859-1) and then reading them back with another encoding (probably UTF-8).
