There was a discussion about this one getting on for a year ago:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/comp.lang.ada/ZhDARPQ8deQ/fubEjsggBAAJ

See the second post.

AdaCore might address this if they have enough Windows customers who
need extended characters in package names! but otherwise I think a fix
is unlikely.

And the Mac problem with file names, which I diagnosed as code points in
NFC being converted to NFD on the file system, persists even into APFS.
