Last I checked, there was nothing wrong with you - there
was a hole in the entity conversion scheme (in the Latin-1
variant at least) from 128 to 160. I submitted a sort of 
a sketch of a patch (I don't have a compiler and getting 
one is #667 on my to-do list). It wasn't ideal - it 
assigned glyphs to codes in this range in an MS-specific 
manner - but that shouldn't matter, as far as I could 
tell, since the codes are purely internal to the database
and we can keep it as a dirty little secret.
