To reproduce: Create an empty File. Do C-q C-o in it. A sequence that looks like ^O should appear. Save the File and kill the buffer. Open the file again. ^O is not there anymore. With emacs22 this works.
Background is that i tried a elisp-program that parses color-sequences in IRC, and tried to match ^O, but with the unicode-2 branch this doesn't work anymore because the ^O goes missing somewhere.
