While using makeindex I note one problem. In Swedish the letters "Å",

first (presumbly on the idea that it is a symbol). Is there a way I can fix
this? I looked in the makeindex.pdf docs, but found nothing (either
isn't there or I failed reading comprehension 101)

You can't do that with makeindex; use xindy.

Ciao
Enrico

then it is as easy as

texindy -L swedish file.idx

I've used it for Danish for years.
