What I wrote was not about ?ñ itself (which is indeed just an integer
241 in Emacs 23), but about the two possibilities to convert it to the
internal representation when it is inserted into a string (or a
buffer, for that matter). One possibility is to convert it to a UTF-8
encoding of the Latin-1 character ñ, the other is to convert to the
(extended) UTF-8 encoding of a character whose codepoint is 4194289.
