Re: --safe-mode makes \`e fail

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you use \encoding "latin1" then you should input the Latin1 encoding
of the character directly. If you want to use the TeX commands, then you
should use
\encoding "TeX"
instead.

Of course, this doesn't answer why your file happens to work when you
don't use --safe-mode. Also, note that the safe mode is much safer in
the latest development versions.
