On your EBCDIC platform, what does this give?
use Encode;
$string = "a";
$enc_string = encode("iso-8859-16", $string);
print ord ($enc_string), "\n";
__END__

a regexp leave a gap, but [\x89-\x91] not.
I don't know where ranges in tr/// are parsed, but given that I grepped
for EBCDIC and didn't find any analogous code, it looks like tr/\x89-\x91//
is treated as tr/i-j// and in turn i-j is treated as letters and always
"special cased"

w. How thorough are the tests? Do the tests check for the
conversion of characters with Unicode code points >127?
You're asking questions beyond my knowledge.

; NATIVE_TO_ASCII macro on the input character?
I don't know.
And if the test is only checking for invariant characters below 127, it
doesn't strike me as a very thorough test.
