I once had the same problem, and mailed Colin about it. He then wrote,
that it was just a warning, and that the data would be backed up,
however, it won't be restored with the correct filename.

Try setting the LANG variable to C (LANG=C tarsnap -c -f ...), before
you run tarsnap. That should fix the encoding problems.
