The more Unicode-like way to specify it would be "\=i", as Unicode 
assumes "i" is "soft-dotted", i.e., loses its dot when accented. That 
seems to be what utf8accents.sty is expecting:

	\DeclareUTFcomposite[\UTFencname]{x012B}{\=}{i}

Possibly something like:

	\DeclareUTFcomposite[\UTFencname]{x012B}{\=}{\i}

but I'm really only guessing.
