You just ned to turn off the unify-on-decode.
The unify-on-encode is safe and does not do unification.  All it
does is to allow saving latin-1 chars into a latin-2 file (as long
as the latin-1 chars also exist in latin-2, of course).

I really think unify-on-encode should be turned ON by default
because I still haven't heard of any reasonable scenario where it can
do anything undesirable.  Actually, I can't even think of any reason
why we should try to make it possible to turn it off.
