there is a Unicode library (based on the Word32 datatype) available as
part of fxp [1] (an XML parser) that works with various SML Systems (I
use it with current releases of Poly/ML, sml/NJ, and Mlton).

Maybe having a look into the fxp code (especially src/Unicode) could
help you - but of course, this depends on the problem you need to
solve. fxp only implements the stuff needed for parsing UTF encoded
XML documents. I have to admit, that I not looked to deep into the fxp
source myself (only enough to get it running with the above mentioned
SML-systems) but I am using as part of our UML toolchain and it works
well.
