Upshifting and Character Types 

The upshift and character type tables used at any given time always
reflect the current language.  These tables are retrieved whenever the
language is changed.  Since any previously entered data is unchanged and
remains in the format in which it was entered, type U data items are not
"re-upshifted" to reflect different language-particular upshift
requirements if the language changes.  However, any new data is upshifted
as required and stored in the format appropriate to the specified
language.
