(Esta no es realmente una respuesta, sino un intento de aislar qué causa el problema y qué podría solucionarlo).
Entrar en una DATABASE con un CHARACTER SET totalmente irrelevante y COLLATION .
mysql> CREATE DATABASE `so40064402` /*!40100 DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ucs2 COLLATE ucs2_bin */
mysql> USE so40064402;
Database changed
Establezca utf8_polish para el cliente:
mysql> SET NAMES utf8 COLLATE utf8_polish_ci;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'c%a%t%';

Ahora cambiemos SET NAMES solamente. ¿¿¡Ahora funciona!?? A pesar de UUID() siendo utf8 !?
