To see what I mean, try the attached bib files. Use \nocite* in the document
to get all entries and see how BibTeX sorts the entry with the name "Bär"
wrongly in the utf8-encoded file (the name "Bär" must be sorted right after
"Baar" and before "Bauman").
Bibtex8 does this specific case right, because the latin1 glyphs have the same
code points in unicode. However, bibtex8 will scream and bail out at the first
multibyte character it finds. I guess sorting on non-latin1 glyphs will be
just random.
