Thanks, it works this way, but there's no need to add it to the
definitions in the core since it's not even in unicode. (The only
strange thing is that \=a ("valid" char) or \=d work OK in text flow,
but not in the table, where faking the character seems to interact in
a strange way with the table typesetting.)

But this solution is OK for me, thanks again,
