I agree with your understanding and your proposed solution. 

On the subject of latin-unity bugs (well, in this case, a bug inherited from
latin-unity and now in latin-euro-standards), the last autoload here:

http://cvs.xemacs.org/viewcvs.cgi/XEmacs/packages/mule-packages/latin-euro-standards/latin-euro-latin9.el

should not be an autoload. This is something I didn’t quite get when
writing this: http://calypso.tux.org/pipermail/xemacs-beta/2005-September/006733.html
