Thanks for reporting that bug. Who would have thought that after all these years, GNU 'dd' would still be mishandling EBCDIC conversion? The GNU dd implementation of conv=ascii is clearly incorrect. I installed the attached patch. Please give it a try if you can. I am closing the bug report for convenience, but we can reopen it if the patch does not work for you.
