I tested this with DMD 0.125 and gdc 0.11 on linux (gcc 3.4.2) and it 
didn't give an error. However on mac (gdc 0.11, gcc 3.4.3) I had an error:

//---------------------------------------
void Á()
{}

void main()
{
	Á();
}
//---------------------------------------

I get "/var/tmp//ccismieQ.s:29:Invalid mnemonic '?FZv'". I also tried 
with this characters: áéíóúñÑÁÉÍÓÚ. It doesn't matter if I start the 
function with a non-accented letter. The weird thing is that sometimes I 
can use these characters on identifiers. Sometimes it works, sometimes 
it doesn't. There doesn't seem to be a pattern.

The assembler doesn't like those characters. This problem seems to have 
been fixed in Tiger (tried it just now).  If you are sticking with 
Panther, you might still be able use the assembler from the latest 
Darwin sources/binaries.

I reported this as D.gnu/983,
but then Walter said that he had "fixed" the D name mangling somehow ?
(DMD 0.116: http://www.digitalmars.com/d/changelog.html#new0116)

Maybe he didn't change all possibilities, or something.
