My guess is that the API used by this IBM DLL is expecting
cp1252, but Tcl is providing/retrieving utf-8-encoded data
for it. Do you know where the Tcl wrapper-code for this
IBM dll is? I think there's nothing wrong with the IBM dll,
It's just that Tcl should respect the IBM API.

Is the code here?
