I'm not seeing the incorrect characters, but for anything involving '
or " I'm just getting the ^K sequence inserted unchanged.  This is
with version 9.8l and 9.8r.

Looking in digraphs.rc, I see that the quote characters are escaped in
the map! statements:

  map! ^Ka` ^V224
  map! ^Ka\' ^V225
  map! ^Ka\" ^V228

So the first works fine, and produces à as expected.  The other two
require the backslash to be entered as part of the sequence to work.
i.e. the four character sequence ^Ka\' produces á.  Omitting the
backslash gives the input unchanged: ^Ka'.

Editing diagraphs.rc to remove the backslashes appears to load fine,
and then the digraph works as expected.  Did the rc parser change Tom?
