Can you really make byte 0xC2 active in luatex?  This would completely
break Unicode support, since 0xC2 is an incomplete UTF-8 sequence.

It seems so.  Meanwhile, Masamichi-san wrote another report, see
below.  With pdftex, everything works just fine.

It doesn't have such lines, see attachment – luatex works with UTF-8
directly...

======================================================================

[This is lilypond documention.]


At least the following letters are failed with same error:
ø U+00F8 LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH STROKE (\o) in internals and music-glossary,
ù U+00F9 LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH GRAVE (\`u) in snippets,
ü U+00FC LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH DIAERESIS (\"u) in essay.

Also, many other letters will be failed.

\S and \P may be minor.
So they can be replaced easily.

However, If I understand correctly, \"u is major in german text.
It is difficult to replace all \"u, isn't it?

Moreover, there are other errors as following.
