a hyper keybinding for unicode gave a strange kbd macro error

[Xah Lee]

i have this defined in my emacs:

(global-set-key (kbd "H-*") "°")

which inserts a degree character when Hyper + Shift  + 8 is pressed.

works fine in OS X, but on Windows Vista + emacsW32, it gives this
error:
“After 0 kbd macro iterations: Keyboard macro terminated by a command
ringing the bell”

any idea?

GNU Emacs 23.0.94.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.0.6001) of 2009-05-28 on
LENNART-69DE564 (patched)

Thanks.
