    Summary: Encode-compat - Encode.pm compatibility layer
    Description: 
    WARNING: THIS IS A PROOF-OF-CONCEPT.  Most functions are incomplete.
    All implementation details are subject to change!
    
    This module provide a compatibility layer for Encode.pm users on perl
    versions earlier than v5.7.1.  It translates whatever call it receives
    into Text::Iconv, or (in the future) Unicode::MapUTF8 to perform
    the actual work.
    
    The "is_utf8()", "_utf8_on()" and "_utf8_off()" calls are performed
    by the method native to the perl version -- 5.6.1 would use
    "pack"/"unpack", 5.6.0 uses "tr//CU", etc.
    
    Theoretically, it could be backported to 5.005 and earlier, with none of
    the unicode-related semantics available, and serves only as a
    abstraction layer above "Text::Iconv", "Unicode::MapUTF8" and possibly
    other transcoding modules.
