Closed as program error.
Error description
8.0.1 on AIX. This works correctly on 8.1. APT_CharsetConverterRep::determineCodepageFamily(UConverter* conv ) method in converter.C does not correctly detect the code page family when presented with a ASCL_EBCDIC charset converter. It incorrectly sets the charset converter family to eFamilyASCII which in turn causes the conversion function convertToString_(...) in unicode_utils.C to bypass the ICU call to perform the conversion and instead does an optimzed copy of the bytes instead.
Local fix
