Hi Galen,

I'll fix and resubmit, but first a couple of quick questions:

1.  I had SetMarcUnicodeFlag() as MARC21-only because that's how it is
in the original version.  The comments indicate that it isn't necessary
in UNIMARC.  Should I move it anyway?

2.  If we do run SetMarcUnicodeFlag() on UNIMARC records, it will
create the 100a for the UTF-8 flag, and that means that the code in
AddAuthority() which creates the 100a and populates it with the creation
date and other basic values won't get called.  Should I add code to do
that to addbiblio.pl?

Thanks,

Brian
