The default charset used for files is utf-8.  The convmv program can
help you convert filenames from one encoding to another.

If you have filenames that are using ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1), for
example, you might be able to make find happy using something like
this:

LANG=en_US.iso88591 find ...

But fixing the encodings of the filenames seems like a far better
solution.
