Research direction
Start with ancestors (2).ged at line 47441 and trace how the parser handles the reported ANSI input and the elevated TM character. Investigate whether ANSI refers to a code page and compare the UTF-8 and “SGCI” representations. Done means the character is identified and parsed or reported correctly without corrupting the GEDCOM data.
