+Add support for Latin-1 characters in hyphenation algorithm
+
+Ideally, it would support UTF-8, but Latin-1 is a big improvement
+over ASCII nonetheless.
+
+This patch disables the suffix function, which I haven't (yet) gotten
+to work with Latin-1. Suffix is, however, hard-coded for English,
+and, in any case, I'm not sure how important it is. In the meantime,
+it isn't a huge loss.
