I have a very, very vague memory from 1989/1990 of this sort of damage
occurring when sending Swedish EDI messages over IBM IE, and that it was
due to asymmetries in ASCII/EBCDIC conversion. I think we 'solved' it by
using the converter's capability to perform character mapping on the
incoming data stream.
