Dear Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen,

Thank you for your post.

I agree that it is not a bug in Emacs per se.

If the bug report remains in the bugzilla, and still could be searched,
the main purpose of the original bug report is fulfilled.
People who got bitten with the bug can search the bugzilla and find the
solution.

Too bad, I am not familiar with the innards of the handling of
multibyte character code sets anymore and so I can offer
a reasonable patch myself.

But thank you again for your attention on the
unclosed bugs in the bug report database.

Happy Hacking!

Sincerely,
Chiaki Ishikawa
