50=head1 BUGS
51
67d7b5ef 52When you see C<charset=ks_c_5601-1987> on mails and web pages, they really
53mean "cp949" encodings. To fix that, the following aliases are set;
54
55 qr/(?:x-)?uhc$/i => '"cp949"'
56 qr/(?:x-)?windows-949$/i => '"cp949"'
57 qr/ks_c_5601-1987$/i => '"cp949"'
b2729934 58
59ASCII part (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though it
60conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium. See

64to find why it is implemented that way.
