It's an old, old check back from when SJIS and EUC were
common multi-byte systems.

SJIS especially has the property that the second byte
can contain a value <127 as part of the 2-byte char
set. So if CH_UNIX is set to a char set with such a
property we can't walk it as bytes, but must see if
a pair of values [0] (> 0x80) [1] (any value) can be
converted into a valid multi-byte char, in which case
we ignore it (otherwise we might look at the second
byte value of ':' or something and consider it invalid).

I thought about removing this and re-writing it, but
it made my brain hurt (and might break some very old
systems :-). So moving to next_codepoint() which checks
the next char len without causing the conversion error
messages seemed the simplest fix :-).
