Could someone with a non-English keyboard please try to debug Bug#5380?

In sgml-mode-map, we do the following:
(let ((c 127)
(map (nth 1 map)))
(while (< (setq c (1+ c)) 256)
(aset map c 'sgml-maybe-name-self)))
where
(defun sgml-maybe-name-self ()
"Insert a symbolic character name according to `sgml-char-names'."
(interactive "*")
(if sgml-name-8bit-mode
(let ((mc last-command-event))
(if (< mc 256)
(setq mc (unibyte-char-to-multibyte mc)))
(or mc (setq mc last-command-event))
(sgml-name-char mc))
(self-insert-command 1)))
This must have broken with the switch to unicode, but it's inconvenient
for me to debug without a keyboard that can produce these characters.
