appear (a capital X with a bar through its middle),
but something that resembles a badly deformed Hebrew 'Ain'.

Docs say: If the useUnicode property is set to true, the charToNum function returns an integer between zero and 65535.

So it's out of range. It might be doing what it does if useunicode is false -- setting the value to the number div 255.
