Ah, right.

In any case, I think it's pretty inconsistent that `C-x 8' will (as a
side effect) make the `Alt-' bindings available, so I think it makes
sense to preload iso-transl so that things are more consistent.

So I've now done this on the trunk.  If people strenuously object,
though, I'm not married to the idea.  But then I think this should be
fixed so that `C-x 8' does not define the `Alt-' keystrokes, because
that's just an odd and not very logical interaction.
