Hi,

starting with kernel-version 7.4.3.14 (no timeschedule so far)
it will be possible to create and use mapchar sets even in a 
unicode-database.

CREATE MAPCHAR SET <mapchar set name> AS
   ASCII | EBCDIC | UNICODE
WITH <byte_string> TO <byte_string> | <string_literal>

In case a MAPCHAR SET is defined AS UNICODE the first
<byte_string> has to describe 2 bytes (4 <hex_digits>), the second <byte_string> resp. 
<string_literal> has to describe 2 bytes or 4 bytes (4 or 8 <hex_digits> resp. 1 or 2 
character).

A MAPCHAR SET defined AS UNICODE can be used only for values of datatype UNICODE, 
other MAPCHAR SETs cannot be used for values of datatype UNICODE.
