[pmwiki-users] Pagenames with accented characters

[DaveG]

Anyone have any insight into this? I've had email off-line from people 
for whom the cookbook does work -- so the problem is something in my 
config. I've tried in an out of the box configuration, and still cannot 
get it to work.

The odd thing is that the $MakePageNamePatterns is being picked up, 
since the conversion of the 'e' to a '3' works fine in the same config.
