I don't know if the subject looks correct, but in 20.4 (on an NT box no
less), I get the correct translation of Kai's last name with the German SS
character. In 20.3 the character just translated to an underscore.
May I say, "Woo hoo!"
Hrmm. Unfortunately, Ispell really doesn't like that special character.
Is there anyway to keep Ispell from barfing on multibyte characters? I
actually get a "This program has performed an illegal operation." message
from the OS.

It is not a multibyte character; it is an 8-bit ISO-8859-1 (I think)
character.

That is a bug in FSF Emacs.
