Decomposed characters display error

What steps will reproduce the problem?
- Create a folder named éclair in Finder. The accent is important since it is a decomposed character (e+´)
- Go to the folder in iTerm2
- Run the command pwd
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output would be /tmp/éclair for example, but I get /tmp/é clair.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Build 0.20.20110103 on 10.6.5
Please provide any additional information below.
I get the same thing for all decomposed characters. If I activate "Treat ambiguous-width characters as double width" I get two spaces after the é.
I think the problem is that iTerm2 renders a place for the ´, but since it combines with the previous character to form é, an empty space is rendered.
