isotomac() does this.
Are you using isotomac() at all?
Or Maybe rev is doing so behind the scenes for some reason ?
Perhaps you moved the stack across platforms ?
( isotomac() and mactoiso() should never be used on texts containing
certain CO control chars (ie ascii < 32) as many of them will be
remapped. Only use these functions on genuine human-readable data strings. )
