The problems with CP1250 and CP1251 are solved with this patch. No  
other failure could be found, except that there is just one  
difference, with and without the patch: a thai-tis620 encoded buffer  
(without NO BREAK SPACE) shows Thai glyphs, but when the same  
contents is reverted to iso-8859-11 (which is thai-tis620 with NO  
BREAK SPACE) only empty boxes are shown.

To most people solutions mean finding the answers. But to chemists  
solutions
are things that are still all mixed up.
