Mixing charset works for me in a Mule buffer, but there are
environmental brain-damages that appear to be incurable for Mule.  For 
instance, it insists that the default 128-255 chars are iso-8859-1,
which is a hard-coded arbitrary value with no hope of ever changing it 
to iso-8859-2.

Non-Mule XEmacs can be set up to work with latin2 just fine -- you
simply point it to latin2 fonts, and it works out of the box.  This
strategy works on TTY's too (which is another problem with
XEmacs/Mule).

Thus for me, Mule is useless.  So much for the "internationalization".
