Thanks for the clarification.

But isn't it confusing, that the external representation of
for example 
Ada.Characters.Latin_1.LC_AE_Diphtong
looks nothing like an AE-diphtong in lower case,
but rather looks like the greek letter mju ?

Is it really the case, that no codepage usable in Windows95 
corresponds to Ada.Characters.Latin_1 ?

Of course, one might argue, that if so, this is a Windows95 problem, 
not an Ada95 problem.  Closing the question without solving the problem.
