Daniel may be referring to CECP 1047, which I have sometimes heard
referred to as "open EBCDIC." But see below.

Otto, is this a typo for 1047, or is there really a new CECP 1046
that has replaced 1047?

This is definitely a typo. 1251 is the code page for Cyrillic.
1252 is the Latin-1 code page.
Thanks to Otto for his thorough answer to Daniel's question.
