Gosh, I sure hope not, because that would mean that we rolled our own for no good reason. We wound up just collapsing the input stream by substituting plain old 'e' for all the accented variants before indexing and before searching. Be *really* careful what character set you're using.
Actually, we would have still had to roll our own because the character mapping was...er...wonky <G>.... You have to store the data raw for display purposes if you want the accents to show though...
