rummage around the documentation for -stringByFoldingWithOptions:locale: and the ICU project's normalization library (which IIRC is what the ObjC method wraps) and you'll probably find something appropriate.

Such as? NSDiacriticInsensitiveSearch doesn't work:

set theString to current application's NSString's stringWithString:"æ"

theString's stringByFoldingWithOptions:(current application's NSDiacriticInsensitiveSearch) locale:(current application's NSLocale's currentLocale())

--> "æ"

And yet:

ignoring diacriticals

"æ" = "ae" --> true

end ignoring
