In the version route-r806 the option --latin1 worked to get german Umlauts displayed correctly (Using nocodepage option for osm2mp).
Now i tried r858 and r861, and runnig with same options the unlauts will be displayed as ??, on Garmin oregon and QLandkarte.
This was pretty working for umlauts: #java -Xmx512M -enableassertions -jar mkgmap-route-r806/mkgmap.jar --latin1 --route --gmapsupp map1.mp
This produces ?? instead of umlauts: java -Xmx512M -enableassertions -jar mkgmap-r861/mkgmap.jar --latin1 --route --gmapsupp map1.mp
I had the same problem except with Spanish accents when I switched from using the route branch to truck. It seems that some code was added to the PolishMapDataSource class which assumes the characters are iso-8859-1. To fix it I changed '--codepage' to '--codepage 1252' in my call to osm2mp.pl. If I understand things correctly, this should work for you as well. Cheers, Ben
