Hmm... please try the following:
- open the latin-9 file
- go to the ö file in it, hit C-u C-x =, and shows the result
- then insert ö somewhere, place point back on this newly inserted char
  and do C-u C-x = again (and show us the result again).

also try the following:

  C-u M-: (read-event) RET ö

and show us the result.
