Hello,
as of now, git log lib/CGI/t/util-58.t in blead shows two commits.
The latter one, from 2006, is incorrect.

The right way to escape a Unicode string is to encode it in UTF-8 and
then escape each byte. That test checks that. The output should not
depend on whether the platform is ASCII or EBCDIC.

Please return to the original version of t/util-58.t, as found in
CGI.pm-3.29 or CGI.pm-3.42 tarballs.

If the test fails on EBCDIC platforms, skip it, admitting that "CGI does
not work with Unicode strings on EBCDIC platforms (yet)."

Actually, there is a chance that the test will work on EBCDIC platforms
as soon as the following bug gets fixed
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=34528

(If we are lucky, the patch submitted there might get into CGI.pm-3.43.)

This was reverted when CGI.pm-3.43 was integrated.
