The converters for Cp943 and Cp943C (Japanese IBM PC) have a number of problems
dealing with the "ITAIJI" characters.

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


ByteToCharCp943, ByteToCharCp943C
IBM PC to Unicode
 Current mapping Correct mapping
 xFA59 -> uF86F xFA59 -> u2116

CharToByteCp943, CharToByteCp943C
Unicode to IBM PC
 Current mapping Correct mapping
 u4FE0 -> x3F u4FE0 -> x8BA0
 u525D -> x3F u525D -> x948D
 u555E -> x3F u555E -> x88A0

                        uFF0D -> x817C
                        uFFE4 -> xFA55

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.
