You seem to be using Windows. I have used the utf8 facilities on GNU/Linux systems, but I have no idea whether that might be available in/with ActiveState Perl.
Doing an advanced search here for
perl utf8 yields about 50 hits, some of which may be useful.

CATOD(1) General Commands Manual CATOD(1)
NAME
catod - To convert the text format of a dictionary to binary
format.
SYNOPSIS
catod [-s maxword ] [-R] [-r] [-e] [-S] [-U]
[-P dicpasswd ] [-p frepasswd ]
[-h cixingfile ] outfilename
DEFAULT PATH
/usr/local/bin/cWnn4/catod
DESCRIPTION
This command converts a dictionary from text format into binary format.
outfilename is the name of the binary format dictionary. If outfilename is not given, the output will be passed to the standard output
device(stdout).
The input file may be piped in by using the "<" command. For example,
catod basic.dic < basic.u
"basic.dic" here is the output binary format dictionary, while the "basic.u" is the input text format dictionary.
If the input text dictionary is not given, the input will be taken from the standard input(stdin). To end the input via standard input,
press ^D.
OPTIONS
-s maxword
To specify the maximum number of words. Default is 70000.
-R To create a dictionary for both forward and reverse conversion. (Default).
-r To create a reverse format dictionary only for reverse conversion.
-e If the Hanzi inside the text dictionary contains characters such as space and tab, they will be compacted to special format.
(Default).
-S To create a static dictionary.
-U To create a dynamic dictionary.
-P dicpasswd
To specify the password for the dictionary.
If "-N" is used instead, the password of the dictionary will be set to "*".
-p frepasswd
To specify the password for the usage frequency file.
If "-n" is used instead, the password of the frequency file will be set to "*".
-h cixingfile
To specify the Cixing definition file.
NOTE
1. The parts in [ ] are options. They may be omitted.
2. The Pinyin and Zhuyin dictionary has the same format.
3. For details of the dictionary structure, refer to cWnn manual.
