I'm not sure that's the issue, because

  1) 8-bit characters are read and written OK to the OCaml interpreter
via the Windows console, and

  2) if I write the equivalent C program and compile it on Windows, 8-bit
characters are passed as arguments and spat back just fine

Instead, there seems to be something in the way OCaml handles command-line
arguments.
