I can confirm that with Spanish accents. Looks like an UTF-8 conversion problem to me. Maybe multibyte constants are not handled correctly somewhere in the shell code?
This error is very annoying, specially because it means that no shell command can be executed from the command line (the "can't change directory" message means that the shell remains on the parent directory, even though the correct directory is shown in the panel). This is a regression comparing with the Edgy version, so IMHO it should be fixed before release.
