I've found at least one project using mkgmap that converts 0xF3 to an o
(and some other in cp1252 that are not ascii characters like 0xD3 to an
O, 0xED to an i, and probably more) using an external shell script. The
script also converts letters that are outside of cp1252, and I haven't
quite figured out how the script is being invoked. I guess it could be
applied to the OSM data before being sent to mkgmap. There is also a
script to make all names upper case only, that I am pretty sure gets run
on the OSM data, and would make sense to run it after the filter command.

Character Conversion:

Force Uppercase:

Hope this helps,
Bill

Well, this is an odd case :). Indeed, this letter is part of cp1252 -
but in case of Polish language, all other diacritical letters (outside
cp1252 charset) are transliterated except this one. This results in
situation when user enters city/street name with transliterated
characters, but index contains non-transliterated letter ó - and the
search fails.
Would it be possible to provide custom transliteration table/entries
from a command line argument?

Hi
latin1 transliteration doesn't touch letter ó (0x00F3) - it
should be
converter to letter o.
Why? The letter is a valid character in cp1252 as far as I know. It
also is displayed in mapsource for me.
