Public bug reported:

Not sure if this needs to be reported since its already a reported
debian bug.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=354935

Its quite annoying since many people won't have utf8 fonts installed and
there not a dependency.

You can revert from the dapper to breezy version of mpage package.
or
Quick work around (for most files) is to pipe postscript file produced through
grep -v '^\/uni'
before passing to viewer ot printer

e.g. 
mpage -1 royal-mail.txt |grep -v '^\/uni' | gv -
