PHP Multibyte String Functions library

[#1]

Hi - I'm developing a website on the Plusnet CGI server using PHP and the mySQL support.
A PHP utility that I want to use needs the "PHP Multibyte String Functions library"  to be installed on the server.
Not a library that is installed by default, but....
...any possibility of this being made available (very) soon?
thanks 
ps not sure if this the best vehicle for this request but will also ask same question under Support on my Plusnet account

Is this a good idea as the CGI box is going to be turned off in a few months time - I suggest you look at PAYH (this may have what you are looking for anyway).

Thanks for the info - didn't get wind of the changes!
