What's wrong with UTF-8 when writing both in German an Norwegian?

A kind of "fallback"? I don't know. But you could compile emacs without UTF-8
support, having the same behaviour as 22.3. Frankly, I don't know why one
would want to do that. Or am I missing the point? 

It's no problem to write in (nearly) whatever you want using UTF-8, 
og det skal aldeles ikke være noe problem i det heile tatt å få til ordentlig tekst, 
tegn og skrift på både norsk, tysk og engelsk.
