EVALUATION

While the "general" definition of iso8859-15 is "iso8859-1 + euro", the "formal"
spec is that the 8859-15 is an "update" of 8850-1, it removed some "in-frequently" used characters and added some "useful" characters, including eoru. So strictly speaking,
these are two "different" encodings/charsets, 8859-15 does not "contain" 8859-1 based
on Charset.contains() spec.

The implementation before b43 is wrong and the test case is wrong.
