Do I understand it correctly that EBCDIC support is gone now in general?

Yes, that is correct.

This is true: libcurl internally only works on ASCII-based character sets.

However the OS400 platform interface still implements EBCDIC wrappers to the API that are completely independent of the late CURL_DOES_CONVERSION code.

This approach is less-error prone for libcurl's code as it concentrates code conversion efforts to a single place. In addition, it offers (on the OS400) at runtime the choice among using several EBCDIC variants and to mix them.
