The char-table produced by make-char-table is originally comprised of
a single range of characters with a single value of nil. After the
call to set-char-table-range, that range is split in 2: character
codes 1 and 2 get the value of 'binding, the rest are left with nil.
Thus, map-char-table calls its 2nd argument twice, one each for every
range of characters in the table that share the same value.

??? Why? And where do you see that map-char-table alters the cons
cell being used as output? What output?
