Below (and at http://snipabacken.dyndns.org/~grahn/tmp/groff-se.patch) is an
update which, as far as I can tell, brings sv.tmac to the same level as
fr.tmac. Caveats and comments:

- I haven't tried any of this ... although I read some of the mom
  documentation to find out what was going on.
- .hcodes map the accented letters 'e' to plain 'e' -- I hope
  that is proper.
- I don't really understand the escapes for national characters.
  Will \[a ao] really end up as 'å'?  I would have expected \[oa].
- What about the '.ss 12 0' line here and in fr.tmac? It makes sense to use
  it in all documents IMHO, but should these files activate it?
