Linux iconv will not take ICU's UTF-8.
ICU's uconv will read the iconv output but does produce same as original
table.euc.
So far as I see Linux iconv is ascii-preservative while ICS's is
Unicode-strict.
From Perl's point of view ASCII preservative should be default.
Why?
FYI I have reported this brain-dead mapping problem to Unicode
Consortium but never got an answer. Well, they are not public society
in a way they charge for the membership to say anything. One of the
reasons so many Japanese love to hate Unicode...
Could you summarize the problem in few lines, I could try reminding
the unicode people, 3.2 is about to come out soon.
Our current euc-jp.ucm is compatible with Linux iconv.
Right choice.
Again, why?
