> An obvious temporary workaround is __not__ using an __8-bit__ locale...

This is a quite serious typo that inverts the sense of the sentence...

By the way, I don't agree that this is a good workaround, as it leads to
different system setup, filenames or text file contents being encoded in
different charset etc... so you'll get completely different result. A good
workaround is to use other input methods, e.g. a good terminal emulator
under X, or Alt+Number from numpad, or loading a keymap that contains the
desired accented letters without dead keys...
