Two of the tests introduced in this commit have failed in a unicode
environment since they were introduced:
tony@mars:.../perl/t$ PERL_UNICODE= LC_ALL=de_DE.utf8 ./perl harness op/magic.t
op/magic.t .. 65/171 Malformed UTF-8 character (unexpected continuation byte 0xa0, with no preceding start byte) in unpack at ./test.pl line 272.
# Failed test 154 - ENV store downgrades utf8 in setenv at op/magic.t line 73
# got "eh zero \000\n"
# expected "eh zero \x{a0}\n"
# Failed test 157 - ENV store encodes high utf8 in SV at op/magic.t line 73
# got "X-Day \x{1998}\n"
# expected "X-Day \x{e1}\x{a6}\x{98}\n"
op/magic.t .. Failed 2/171 subtests
(less 4 skipped subtests: 165 okay)
