You indeed need to set PuTTY's character set translation to UTF-8 if you
intend to
use LANG=?.UTF-8 in Cygwin (the default seems to be LANG=C.UTF-8). However,
you must also then use a font which has a good selection of Unicode code
points,
which "Fixedsys" does not.
I will look into making UTF-8 the default setting in PuTTYcyg. PuTTY's default
font is
"Courier New" which supports most Unicode code points, although not all those
in
the ls(1) man page (it's lacking a hyphen U+2010). "DejaVu Sans Mono" seems to
display everything correctly.

Note - For those, like me, who are not clear how to add a font to PuTTy. Putty
requires a monospace font, and will list all the monospace fonts on your system
as
options. Most fonts are variable space, which is why the putty list is so
short. The
'DejaVu Sans Mono' is a monospace, so installing it on your system in the usual
way
(Download the ttf file; open Windows\Fonts in Windows Explorer; File -> Install
new
font; point to the ttf file) will make that font show up in the list of PuTTy
fonts.
Any other monospace font you install will show up the same way.
I was able to find the DejaVu Sans Monospace font at

I have had this problem as well, I simply went to the Window > Translation page
in
the left hand window and changed the setting "Received data assumed to be in
which
character set:" to UTF-8. It was originally at ISO8859.
