The UTF-8 stuff has nothing to do with texinfo macros.  It works on
the most basic level, this is, it directly accesses the input
characters (by making them active) and converts them to texinfo
entities before anything else is going to happen.

On the other hand, hyphenation isn't an issue at all because those
accented characters are always part of foreign words which aren't
hyphenated anyway.
