To me, semi-obsolete is also unclear.  But IMO the same term should be
used everywhere in the function `standard-display-european'; I took it
over from the doc string.

More important is removing (setq-default enable-multibyte-characters
nil).  Is there any objection against this change?  If not, I'll
install the patch.

Bye, Reiner.
