There is 
http://www.saxonica.com/documentation/functions/intro/normalize-unicode.xml 
which says it "Converts a string to Unicode normalized form NFC" so you 
could run your XML input through a stylesheet that transform text nodes 
and attribute values with e.g.
  <xsl:template match="text()">
    <xsl:value-of select="normalize-unicode(.)"/>
  </xsl:template>
  <xsl:template match="@*">
    <xsl:attribute name="{name()}" namespace="{namespace-uri()}" 
select="normalize-unicode(.)"/>
  </xsl:template>
  <xsl:template match="*">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>
