Copy and paste any non-standard character on OS X (mac) fails

Copy and paste any non-standard character on OS X (mac) fails

[Jon Mountjoy]

Hi,

I have the latest CVS HEAD built, running on Panther.   (version says 
it's 21.3.50.1)

[I notice that in this build Emacs is using a different default fontset 
for a file I have that contains French. (fontset-mac) - which is 
great.]

The problem is as follows:
   Open up Emacs, and run the command: set-input-method .  Select 
something like French postfix.
Now if I enter something like
   e' with an accent, then it looks fine.  (I get e with accent above it)

However, you can't copy and paste the text from the emacs buffer to 
another Mac application successfully.  For example,
going from Emacs to Mail I get "È" for the character (accent wrong way, 
cap E).  And going from a Mac app to Emacs I get
"\216" instead of the e character with accent.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Jon
