I cannot reproduce this problem.  It works for me.

  $ mkdir testdir
  $ cd testdir
  $ mkdir folderą
  $ ls
  folderą
  $ ls -d folderą
  folderą
  $ ls -ldog folderą
  drwxrwxr-x 2 4096 Aug 21 11:01 folderą

All of that works as expected.

Please give us more information about the problem.  Please tell us
exactly what you are typing in and the output received.

You may be getting confused about the use of -d.  The FAQ entry on
this may help.  Please see this reference.

I'm guessing there is not a bug in ls, and instead
a mismatch between input and output char encodings?

Does this output as expected?

ls -d folder*

This is a good way to debug what characters really are:

$ ls -1d folder* | od -Ax -tx1z -v
000000 66 6f 6c 64 65 72 c4 85 0a                       >folder...<

cheers,
Pádraig.
