Indeed, and this latin-1 story is rather sad. But I am not a linguist,
so I doubles checked through the web and found two ressources that
I think we can trust :
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Œ
http://www.druide.com/points_de_langue_15.html
both saying œ is mandatory.

I often read text where œ is written oe, so it is a common mistake in
french readings.
