Maybe it is a x'B0' (or similar) and not a x'5F'?

I get these sometimes when using different mechanisms
going through a EBCDIC->ASCII-> cycle.

The first transforms the EBCDIC ¬ to an ASCII ^,
and the seconds transforms an ASCII ^ to an EBCDIC ^.

Er, unless the first transforms an EBCDIC ¬ to an ASCII ¬ and
the second transforms the ASCII ¬ to an EBCDIC whatever.

You get the idea...
