I would guess that the code that generates fact tables wasn't updated
when Unicode support was added to Mercury.  Could you send us a small
test case (or better still add something to the bug database).

Do you actually need to use fact tables?  Support for large facts in
the compiler has improved quite a bit of the past year or so.

Cheers,
Julien.
