that was too optimistic. I David's list is a good start, and you could
replace the calls with the latin1 equivalents,
 scm_from_utf8_string ->  scm_from_latin1_string

maybe it makes sense to introduce a

  ly_string_from_cppstring

>   ly_symbol_from_cppstring

so we can document this hack in one place centrally.
