Unfortunately, dired just isn't designed to work with these kinds of
files.
But you can make it work by changing `dired-listing-switches':
---
If you have files with names with embedded newline characters, adding
`b' to the switches will allow Dired to handle those files better.
---
But that has other side effects some people don't like, which is why we
haven't changed the defaults.
