Well, that does work out to D7 A9 in UTF8, if I'm doing the arithmetic
correctly.
I can't replicate any problem in either 8.1.4 or HEAD. It's possible
that this is a bug that's been fixed since 8.1.3, but I don't recall
any change in that area. I think more likely the difference is between
the he_IL.utf8 locale definitions in Fedora 4 and Debian. Perhaps you
should check for available updates to the locale.
