String-make-unibyte might not do the right thing. It's just a guess when we
don't have any alternative. In this case we have an alternative which is to
signal an error.
After all, this did catch an error in the handling of encode-coding-string
with compound-text, so I think it's better to signal the error than to
silently try to correct it.
