Craig and Encode hackers,

   Okay, Here is the quick solution which will also be the part of
official changes. In the instruction follows, I assume perl/ext/Encode
or Encode-0.xx is the working directory.

0. rename Encode/euc-jp+0212.ucm to Encode/euc-jp.ucm .
        the sole reason euc-jp.ucm existed separately from euc-jp+0212.ucm
was just to make comparisons. Now that euc-jp.ucm fully functional,
there is no reason not to make euc-jp+0212.ucm official. This will also
save 250k bytes or so from the distribution as well.

1. apply the patch below to JP/Makefile.PL

> rcsdiff -u JP/Makefile.PL

  use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;

  my %tables = (
- #EUC_JP => ['euc-jp.enc'],
- EUC_JP => ['euc-jp+0212.ucm'],
+ EUC_JP => ['euc-jp.ucm'],
                SHIFTJIS => ['shiftjis.enc'],
               MACJAPAN => ['macJapan.enc'],
               CP932 => ['cp932.enc'],

In other words, just replace all (one) occurance of euc-jp+0212.ucm to
euc-jp.ucm
