23.0.50; file name containing a newline char breaks dired

[resubmitted with some clarifications and I'm not sure that smtp was set up 
enough
with emacs -q for email to work..]

Due to running a program ported from windows that output diagnostics
in files with absolute path names I have a file called
c:?ewfaultcalculation\Ysys1.dat

(this was generated with the following fortran statement

  
open(9998,file='c:\newfaultcalculation\Ysys1.dat',status='unknown',iostat=ioss)

)

Now when I dired on that directory dired-next-line moves in the file
permissions area rather than the file name and if I dired-do-shell-command,
that selects my user and group for the file name rather than the
actual file name.

When I delete the strangely named file (which I can't do with
dired) things are restored to normal behaviour!
Also dired appears to be fine when operating before the faulty file 
in the dired listing
