Hi.

It was comfortable in my environment. Then, as for me, to be contained

BTW, I was wondering that it did not look at a problem in any countries
other than Japan. Probably, the environment with the runs locale which
can't be specified to be SERVER_ENCODING will be required.

Regards,
Hiroshi Saito
