Hi Valentin,

how exactly is your guile-2-setup, simply checkout the
'guile-v2-work'-branch, rebase and compile?
Then it's not sufficient.

In the attachment to this post
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2018-10/msg00054.html
are all patches to make _master_ work with guile-2.

Meanwhile some of them are already in master.
So not every patch will apply, skip those.
If merge-conflicts happen (likely), prefer whats in master already.

I _think_ accented characters are always supported then.

If not please report.


Cheers,
  Harm
