Thanks.  Creating a new user is not really feasible for me, but I
think I succeeded recreating this by setting HOME manually to point to
a directory with a non-ASCII name.

I see the problem, and I'm testing a provisional solution.  Can you
build your own Emacs from sources?  If so, I'd like to ask you to test
the solution I came up with.
