Yes, I did it very simply.
You have to patch file lib/python/SearchIndex/Splitter.c
very slightly.

Just add line:
#include <locale.h>
somewhere beside include lines (~ line 86)

and line:
setlocale(LC_ALL, "pl_PL");
in function initSplitter, line no. ~493.

It works for polish characters, and all other characters in iso-8859-2
set, so it should satisfy you :)

P.S. You need to compile it, of course:
     gcc --shared -O2 Splitter.c -I/usr/include/python1.5 -o Splitter
     (include path for RH Linux)
     Probably you will need some include files from source distribution.
