I found another solution, which doesn't need to modify mail-extr.el:
;; Set the syntax of all non-ASCII characters to `word'
;; in the syntax tables that mail-extr.el uses.
(eval-after-load "mail-extr"
'(let ((tables '(mail-extr-address-syntax-table
mail-extr-address-comment-syntax-table
mail-extr-address-domain-literal-syntax-table
mail-extr-address-text-comment-syntax-table
mail-extr-address-text-syntax-table))
table charsets generic-char)
(while tables
(setq table (symbol-value (car tables))
tables (cdr tables)
charsets charset-list)
(while charsets
(setq generic-char (make-char (car charsets))
charsets (cdr charsets))
(if (>= generic-char 128)
(modify-syntax-entry generic-char "w" table))))))
This form also modifies the syntax of the Latin-1 nbsp character
to `word' but it doesn't seem to be a problem.
BTW, I think it should be documented that `modify-syntax-entry'
allows the generic character of a charset as the first argument,
as it is mentioned in the doc string of `make-char'.
