I neglected to submit a bug report because:
(1) there were already at least 3 bug reports related to (FAT32 and) character sets or encodings, some of them even had patches;
(2) the reports were very old, indicating that the FreeBSD developers don't care about FAT32;
(3) at least one report was seemingly related, and I didn't want to create a(nother) possible duplicate.

But now, eat this: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=191540
