On an HFS+ formatted USB thumb drive on Mac OS X 10.11, create a file with the following name:
test␀.rtf
(Note the 'nul' in the middle of the filename. It's U+2400.)
Now delete that file. If anybody finds a way, I'm very curious to hear it!

Are you able to rename it from the Finder? Get Info on the file, change its name to something simple, then delete.
Nope. You can't even delete or rename by inode number.
