If you're always using utf-8, here is a way to force it so that
secure-hash can compute the hash. This should work:

   (with-temp-buffer
      (let ((coding-system-for-write 'utf-8))
        (insert "Lechtenb\303\266rger")
        (secure-hash 'md5 (current-buffer))))

Without setting coding-system-for-write to utf-8, it asks for an
encoding:

   (with-temp-buffer
      (insert "Lechtenb\303\266rger")
      (secure-hash 'md5 (current-buffer)))


I'm still no getting your use case, but, let's hope that this naive hack
is enough for you :-)
