There is a slightly updated version of trml2pdf that is floating around out there. It is included in the ubuntu repository and I have also preserved a copy here - http://www.satchmoproject.com/snapshots/trml2pdf-1.2.tar.gz
This version is supposed to be smarter about unicode and other special characters. Would you try removing your old trml2pdf and using the new one. It doesn't blow up for me.
