It was done by Christian Waldvogel. I'll try to pass on your praise :-)

I can't tell you why Christian commented these out. Maybe he thought
they were't needed. He's on vacation right now, otherwise he would
answer.
> If so, how do I redefine symbols like the Euro sign etc?
I would presume that you could just uncomment the respective lines as it
seems to be done in other tables. Grep for "euro" or "dagger" in the
tables directory (or see

Hope that helps
Christian
