Four symbol characters have different mappings in the Microsoft
EUC_JP code page and in the real industry standard.
For one of these characters the Java converter is using the MS
mapping rather than the official JIS one:
  x815C -> u2015 (HORIZONTAL BAR) is the incorrect (MS) mapping

It should be changed to this:
  x815C -> u2014 (EM DASH) 
and the reverse should be added as well:
  u2014 (EM DASH)  -> x815C, 

For IBM and MS encoding compatibility, it's also recommended to
add the following mappings, which are not formally part of the
standard but are defined in both the MS and IBM converters:
    uFFE0 (FULLWIDTH CENT SIGN) -> x8191 
    uFFE1 (FULLWIDTH POUND SIGN) -> x8192 
    uFFE3 (FULLWIDTH MACRON) -> x8150  

I'm filing this bug on behalf of Masayuki Fuse <###@###.###>

directly for more information.
