Hello David,

can you please make a *short* script that show that the warnings are
wrong as it takes quite some time to figure out what your script is
exactly doing.

Description:
------------
MBstring appears to incorrectly map some characters for the following
ISO-8859 charsets, as follows:

Encoding: ISO-8859-7
  incorrect mapping of char 0xa4: got 0x3f, expected 0x20ac
  incorrect mapping of char 0xa5: got 0x3f, expected 0x20af
  incorrect mapping of char 0xaa: got 0x3f, expected 0x37a
Encoding: ISO-8859-8
  incorrect mapping of char 0xaf: got 0x203e, expected 0xaf
  incorrect mapping of char 0xfd: got 0x3f, expected 0x200e
  incorrect mapping of char 0xfe: got 0x3f, expected 0x200f
Encoding: ISO-8859-10
  incorrect mapping of char 0xa4: got 0x124, expected 0x12a

This is based on the mappings provided at
ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/ISO8859/ on 25th Oct 2004. 

Note, there are undated comments in the "Version history" for the above
files, as follows:

8859-7:
#       2.0 version updates 1.0 version by adding mappings for the
#       three newly added characters 0xA4, 0xA5, 0xAA.

8859-8:
#       1.1 version updates to the published 8859-8:1999, correcting
#          the mapping of 0xAF and adding mappings for LRM and RLM.

8859-10:
#       1.1 corrected mistake in mapping of 0xA4

So I guess these mappings have changed since mbstring was first
written. I'm not sure if there would be a backward-compatability
problem if the mappings were changed.

Thanks

Dave
