I should have explained the relation between the patches
on the previous mails. Now I will explain it.

The patch on my 1st mail (perl5-porters:105197 or perl-mvs:1389)
on this thread will change only utf8.h.
This one is superseded by the patch on the my 2nd mail
(perl5-porters:105211 or perl-mvs:1391),
  http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2005-10/msg00016.html

The 2nd patch will change utf8.c and utf8.h.

Today I have investigated on behaviors of is_utf8_char(),
is_utf8_string(), is_utf8_string_loc(), and is_utf8_string_loclen()
on EBCDIC platform, and now I think that we need only 2nd patch.

Regards,
SADAHIRO Tomoyuki
