So we could consider doing the changes ourself.

The internal loading of "utf8x" happens, because some language files provide
the localization strings in utf8 encoding.

My idea for a change would be:

* Remove the hard-coded call to utf8x,
* remove the "inputenc" options,
* check which language files use utf-8 instead of LICR and
  a) document that for language(s) ... one of
     inputenc-utf8, inputenc-utf8x, or Xe/LuaTeX (with Unicode fonts) 
     is required, or
  b) transform the language strings to LICR

Could you also have a look at europecv in other languages? The
problem is not confined to Spanish, the current version of europecv does not
work with non-TeX fonts in any language and does not (or not stable) work with
Xe/LuaTeX in 8-bit compatibility mode either -- even if the tests did not
find this problem.
