The problem was reported by a customer who uses Handy Tech's
backtranslation in HTCom, so this problem certainly appears also in
earlier versions of Liblouis. Yes, I too thought that the problem was
due to a miss defined "i", but I cannot see that it is. I've not found
any other characters than "i", no.
