Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/11.X/PHCO_28815

Symptoms:
	PHCO_28815:
	Unexpected failure in converting data from JIS to SJIS
	or JIS to eucJP, while using iconv(1) or iconv(3C).
	JAGae62740; SR 8606299246

Defect Description:
	PHCO_28815:
	The converters from JIS to SJIS and JIS to EUCJP handled
	shift sequences that straddled input buffer boundaries
	incorrectly. This lead to incorrect conversion of some
	input characters.
	Resolution:
	The implementation has been changed to correctly convert
	characters on input buffer boundaries.
