I can't run the script right now, but I would not be surprised to find
odd behavior for code points 127 through 159, which are reserved as
control characters for compatibility with Latin-1 (and ASCII in the
case of 127). That's also the range where Windows code page 1252 and
Latin-1 disagree with each other.
