The \textrm in front of them is a hack. You get \textrm{Å\textrm{Ø}} if you
insert one directly after the other, which is wrong. IMHO a clean solution
would be to support one of the units packages (e.g. SIunits) and remove Å
and Ø. But this is probably post 1.4 stuff.

This solution is better than latin1 characters in ControlMath.C, because
only the onscreen display may be wrong for non-latin1 documents, and one
can change it without recompiling. I would suggest to do it this way (with
a FIXME comment in lib/symbols), until André has some time to look at it.
