[tex-live] [nodblaccnt]{t5} workaround?

[Vasile Gaburici]

I was doing:

\usepackage[utf8x]{vietnam}
\usepackage[T4,T5,QX,T1]{fontenc} % needed for other latin-b glyphs

which doesn't work. After seeing your example, which does work, I've
changed the order of those two lines to:

\usepackage[T4,T5,QX,T1]{fontenc} % needed for other latin-b glyphs
\usepackage[utf8x]{vietnam}

and it works now. Well, unless you use autofe that is. It doesn't
switch correctly to whatever vietnam sets up T5 to be.

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{autofe}
\usepackage{ucs}
\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage[T4,T5,T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8x]{vietnam}

\begin{document}
You should see N with left hook followed by O with horn:
\fontencoding{T4}\selectfont
\unichar{"019D} % \textNhookleft
%\fontencoding{T5}\selectfont % -- error with this line commented out
\unichar{"01A0} % \horn O
\end{document}

The error is quite confusing:
! LaTeX Error: Command \horn{O} unavailable in encoding T5.
