  In 8.5, IMS PL/I top-down, generated XML2LS converters may not
  process mappings defined by the generated WSDL2ELS *.mapping
  files due to incorrect sorting of an internal XPath binary
  search table named 'dcl ee_table(ELEMENT_ENTRY_NUM)'.  The
  table is being sorted based on the host codepage (EBCDIC)
  instead of the codepage of the XML (Unicode).
