IBM still builds some machines which use EBCDIC, but with EBCDIC, things 
are even worse: the characters aren't even arranged contiguously in the 
space!  So in EBCDIC
   char c;
   int i = c - 'a';
won't work!

But you're right, I don't think that D is running on any of 
those...unless GDC is portable to one...
