Bug description: incorrect character translations for some ISO-8859 charsets
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
