This does not work correctly on 64 bit.  A google found this report:

OT: Fix for Text::Unaccent on 64 bit systems
October 8th, 2009

[ MusicBrainz readers: Please ignore this post -- its only so that
others can find the solution to a problem I just solved ]

If you are running the Perl module Text::Unaccent (version 1.07) on a 64
bit system, you’ll find that it fails its test cases. This is due to a
mismatched type in the Perl module. Apply this patch to your
Text::Unaccent code, recompile and the tests will pass!

Only in Text-Unaccent-1.07-rk/: Makefile.old
