+      - Someone, not via rt.cpan.org, proposed patches for EBCDIC. Thanks!
+      - Here is an experimental EBCDIC support, that the author has not used yet.
+      - Since this distribution on CPAN has a pure-perl module without XSUB,
+        then the internal values should be Unicode, but not native.
+      - All t/*.t files include sub _pack_U and _unpack_U as well as sub ok.
