Use the 'to_ascii' function to convert your string to the "no accent" ASCII equivalent before accomplishing your comparison
SELECT foo FROM table WHERE ( to_ascii(foo) ILIKE to_ascii('caractères accentués') );
This does not work with all database locale (LATIN1 is OK, but LATIN9 is not).
I was actually wondering if this is efficient enough or if there is any more efficient method to accomplish this...

Does have PostgreSQL some option to allow me execute selects accent-insensitive ?
I can´t find any reference, including the manual ....
