Okay I just tried a map with --code-page=1252 but I could not find a lot 
of streets that are found with the trunk.

However on the good side, instead of a popping up crash notice, I get a 
regular (no error) pop up message: "the selected street is not valid in 
this map product, please select a different street".

Using --code-page=1252 is still broke however for Umlauts, as the city 
is inside the index with an Umlaut, but the address without Umlaut. So 
you cannot find streets in cities (though for provinces or states 
Umlauts are fine now) that have an Umlaut, if you enter the city. (city 
without Umlaut is not accepted, and city with Umlaut will not find the 
address).
