Not only is your example multibyte, it also is a wide-glyph (that is,
it takes more space to render than an ASCII 'A', for example). Also I
have been using crosstool-NG on non-ASCII, UTF-8 characters with accents
(eg. é), that are also multibytes (wide chars), but are rendered as wide
as an ASCII char.

I just tried current tip of the tree with those paths:
# pwd
/home/ymorin/dev/crosstool-NG/ct-ng.test-ホーム
# grep CT_PREFIX_DIR= .config
CT_PREFIX_DIR="/opt/x-tools/test-ホーム/${CT_TARGET}"

And the toolchains builds OK, the kernel headers are properly installed.

I believe this might be an issue on your system, and not related to the
handling of multi-byte chars, or wide-glyphs either.

Yes, basically, crosstool-NG creates shell wrappers in
${CT_WORK_DIR}/tools/bin and you should see a file named 'sed' in there.

Yes, definitely it is.
