ATM, I'm running the appended patch without problems.  I guess, it's a
know limitation that unification of characters different from the
latin-1 set, isn't supported by the RC branch?

I can unify a-umlaut from latin-2; but unification does not take place
for characterslike "LATIN SMALL LETTER L WITH STROKE" (x0142).
