Those characters are, oddly enough, not invariants across all the various EBCDIC codepages. That's why they aren't included in the 'ebcdicsafe' array - if you send a '$' character and the remote end has a different codepage, you'll get a different glyph displayed. Think of it as the same issue as 8859-N, just on Really Bad Drugs.
