Sorry, can't provide more clues, but I wouldn't expect EBCDIC
to work on all platforms. It's used on IBM mainframe systems and
similar creatures, which I don't know anything about.

  EBCDIC descended from the code used with punched cards and the
  corresponding six bit binary-coded decimal code used with most
  of IBM's computer peripherals of the late 1950s and early 1960s.

In other words, I wouldn't worry. ;-)
