A function in AUCTeX for doing indentation looks at whitespace syntax
for finding the first non-whitespace character (and so does
`back-to-indentation' in CVS Emacs). That means it will skip the "Ü"
and delete everything from the beginning of the line to and including
the "Ü".
I removed this code in CVS AUCTeX which now only uses
`back-to-indentation'. In Emacs 21.3 this function does not look at
character syntax but simply skips spaces and tab characters at the
beginning of a line.
If AucTeX specifically wants to skip just space and tab, it could do
that explicitly, rather than calling back-to-indentation. That would
work in the latest Emacs.
We could look at trying to fix this by giving different syntax
values to the unibyte non-ASCII codes. The problem is that
(I think) different non-ASCII coding systems would want different
syntax values. However, making codes 200-377 all "word constituent"
might be better than making them all "whitespace".
