Yes. Here it is (as it's short -- just inline):
% % % % % % % % % % % % % % % %
% LaTex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[english,russian]{babel}
\begin{document}
\title{Thirteen Drunken Sailors}
\section{The Persons}
\subsection{First Sailor}
He drank lots of rum
\subsection{Second Sailor}
He was Russian, and was often heard exclaiming "Чёрт!"
\end{document}
% % % % % % % % % % % % % % % %
It works out nicely (note: LaTeX's inputenc seems to want "utf8", no
caps, no dash).

Had to find out experimentally first myself. You know: do first, read
instructions later :-/
But thanks for the hint: had I read your mail carefully first...

Same here.

But I see texi2pdf is delegating to pdflatex -- which in principle is
capable of doing the trick. So there might be hope...
Thanks, regards
