Urk... That means a dip into the toke.c, how the tr/// ranges are
implemented is... tricky. sv_recode_to_utf8() is needed somewhere...
but I'm a little bit pressed for time right now. I suggest you
perlbug this and move the process to perl5-porters. (Inaba Hiroto
also might have insight on this; he's the tr///-with-Unicode sensei,
really-- he practically implemented all of it. And he might read
*[gk]ana much better than me :-)
