What does "SELECT version()" return?  I'm wondering if the server
isn't 8.3 but rather an earlier version (see below).

Your INSERT statement works for me in 8.3.3, 8.2.9, and 8.1.13.
According to the release notes version 8.1 changed UNICODE to UTF8
and added support for 4-byte characters, so the fact that the error
says "UNICODE" and your database doesn't appear to support 4-byte
characters makes me wonder if you're running 8.0 or earlier.
