That's the point. It's stored in NFC, but what applications see is NFD.


Simple : on a Linux host, create files with NFC names, and create an iso
image with mkisofs, with rockridge but no joliet. Burn this to a disc, and
insert the disc in your OSX host, and try to open files from the finder.
Interestingly, IIRC, Finder is able to copy the files, though.

As a bonus, try the same with an iso volume name in NFC, it's even better :
the created mount point is NFD, but it tries to mount on the name in NFC and
fails. And then you just can't eject the CD anymore.
