I don't know what solution you were offering. I was specifically
answering this question:

 "Have you tried to copy-n-paste "—" into an emacs buffer?  What do you get?"

And the answer is: in a multibyte buffer (latin-1, utf-8, etc), em dash.

Then you obviously cannot save U+2014, which is not a latin character.
