Hi Bengt,
your answer is for me puzzling. What do you mean ?

I see no problem on bash, for both case with mintty and with
windows console; but I have not understood what are you using
for your test.

$ uname -srm
CYGWIN_NT-6.1 2.6.0(0.304/5/3) x86_64

  $ ls -l
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 marco Administrators 0 Sep 25 18:43 ÜÖÄöäpß.txt

$ ls *.txt
ÜÖÄöäpß.txt


I have also no problem on echo, also for both (mintty and console)

$ echo ÖÄöäüß
ÖÄöäüß

Regards
Marco
