Unicode tables aren’t available and this causes the failure. ;/

This is unfortunate since without Unicode tables it seems to me that
characters.el needs to be kept in sync with Unicode manually.

I don’t fully comprehend how bootstrapping work just yet though.  In
particular, characters.el has:

    (when (setq unicode-category-table
                (unicode-property-table-internal 'general-category))
      (map-char-table #'(lambda (key val) …)
                      unicode-category-table))

So perhaps it’s enough to hard-code syntax-table for ASCII and update
the rest with similar conditional?
