Does Arch/TLA support the full latin1 character set in filenames?

I'm running Andrew Suffields daily build debian package which does
support spaces in filenames. The version of my just updated
installation says:

    # automatically generated release id (by arch-buildpackage)

    tla-1:20041028-1.lord

I have a directory named "Vedtægter" (the fifth character is the
danish 'ae' character) but tree-lint complains that it violates naming
conventions.

I then changed =tagging-method in the obvious way, to say:

    source ^[_=a-zA-ZæøåÆØÅ0-9].*$

but it makes no difference (spelled out, I have after the "A-Z" added
the danish characters 'ae', 'oslash' and 'aring' in lower and upper
case versions).

Is the use of characters beyond 7bit ascii unsupported or do I need
something more fancy in =tagging-method or similar files?
