[New-bugs-announce] [issue22929] cp874 encoding almost empty

[era]

New submission from era:

I created a simple script to map character codes in the 8bit range to Unicode for simple lookup:

https://github.com/tripleee/8bit

In the generated output, on Python 2.6.6 (but corroborated on Python 2.7.6), almost all character codes come up as "undefined" in CP874.

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_8859-11, CP874 should be a superset of ISO-8859-11, with a few character codes *added* in the ISO control range.
