The Carbon variant is Mac Roman. It accept the umlauts and other 8 bit 
characters from your keyboard.

You could try some of these:

	(setq process-connection-type t)
	(require 'site-fontsets-carbon)
	;(setq mac-command-key-is-meta nil)
	(set-language-environment               'German)
	(setq file-name-coding-system           'utf-8)
	(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'mac-roman-unix)
	(set-default-coding-systems             'mac-roman-unix)
	(set-keyboard-coding-system             'mac-roman)
	(prefer-coding-system                   'mac-roman-unix)
	(global-set-key [kp-delete]             'delete-char)
	  (set-default-coding-systems           'iso-latin-9-unix)
	  (set-keyboard-coding-system           'iso-latin-9)
	  (prefer-coding-system                 'iso-latin-9-unix)
	  (setq mac-transparency-alpha 80)
	  (setq initial-frame-alist '(
	        (mouse-color      . "midnightblue")
	        (foreground-color . "midnightblue")
	        (background-color . "antiquewhite1")
	        (font . "fontset-14pt_bitstream_courier")
	        (top . 10) (left . 650) (width . 89) (height . 60)))
	  (setq default-frame-alist '(
	        (background-color . "ghost white")
	        (foreground-color . "grey10")
	        (vertical-scroll-bars . left)
	        (font . "fontset-12pt_lucidasans_typewriter")
	        (cursor-color . "purple")
	        (cursor-type . box)
	        (top . 20) (left . 150) (width . 89) (height . 56)))

and look into the archves of the Mac OS X Emacs list, around last 
Christmas I published there a list of fontsets for the Carbon and X11 
environments, but the latter one is probably a bit incorrect:
