I can call secure-hash on the buffer with literally inserted
contents without problems.

Thank you for the clarifications.  Probably I have to do that.

For the record, if I insert "Lechtenb\303\266rger" as string into a
buffer, secure-hash asks for a decoding.  If I insert that literally
via an UTF-8 encoded file, secure-hash works.
