Code is becoming more and more RFC-compliant, but in some cases that
compliance affects uses that were common in the past, but always
were dubious if not plain wrong.
I think you used to have your special characters coded as ISO 8859-1.
You cannot do that, they have to be in UTF-8 (an encoding of Unicode
and ISO-10646).

Sorry, I think you will have to translate them. And your old
applications will have to be reconfigured for UTF-8.
Sucks, I know, but OpenLDAP 2.x follows LDAPv3 and that mandates
UTF-8.
