Looks like a bug. I think Emacs is trying to tell you something and
falls over. Anyway, "my" Emacs doesn't know this function (I'm on
23.1.91), so chances are that it belongs to some external package.

It might be that Emacs is trying to ask you which encoding to use to
save this file (maybe the current encoding can't represent this
"enhanced" character. Try to set the encoding yourself (e.g. to utf-8
would be a safe bet) before saving -- e.g. via C-x RET f (or via
menu->Options -> Mule (Multilingual Environment) -> Set Coding Systems
->For Saving This Buffer
(Maybe your version doesn't have a "For Saving This Buffer" entry. But
it surely has a "For Next Command" entry: use this then and save
immediately after this).
Does this help?
To find out where the offending call is, you might try to switch on
debugging (M-x toggle-debug-on-error) before triggering the error.
