The converters for Cp930 and Cp939 (Japanese EBCDIC) have a number of problems
dealing with the "ITAIJI" characters. (At least that's what I think they're
called, but I'm not a Japanese speaker...)

The broken conversions, and the corrections, are as follows:

I'm filing this bug on behalf of IBM Japan's DBCS group. Since
I don't really know that much about these issues myself, feel free
to contact Masayuki Fuse at <###@###.###> for more info.
