Description:
------------
The driver is chopping some values of the return strings. It's like special 
characters counts double. 
If a column 'name' has type varchar(2) and the value of name is 'áa' the value 
returned when queried is 'á' instead of 'áa'. If i resize the column to 
varchar(3) 
the result is correct.
Below I attach a short script to reproduce the bug. I included the dsn so you can 
see the encoding settings

Test script:
---------------
$dsn = "informix:database=base;server=ol_server;host=192.168.123.123;client_locale=en_us.utf8;db_locale=en_us.819;service=1526;protocol=olsoctcp;EnableScrollableCursors=1";
$db = new \PDO($dsn, 'user', 'pass');
$db->exec("CREATE TABLE ticket82 ( name VARCHAR(2) );");
$db->exec("INSERT INTO ticket82 VALUES ('aa');");

$statement = $db->query("select name from ticket82;");
$value = $statement->fetchAll(\PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
echo "expected 'aa' got '{$value[0]['NAME']}'\n";

$db->exec("update ticket82 set name='áa';");
$statement = $db->query("select name from ticket82;");
$value = $statement->fetchAll(\PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
echo "expected 'áa' got '{$value[0]['NAME']}'\n";

$db->exec("ALTER TABLE ticket82 MODIFY (name varchar(3));");
$statement = $db->query("select name from ticket82;");
$value = $statement->fetchAll(\PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
echo "expected 'áa' got '{$value[0]['NAME']}'\n";

$db->exec("DROP TABLE ticket82;");

Expected result:
----------------
expected 'aa' got 'aa'
expected 'áa' got 'áa'
expected 'áa' got 'áa'


Actual result:
--------------
expected 'aa' got 'aa'
expected 'áa' got 'á'
expected 'áa' got 'áa'

Hi,
  Have verified the issue. Since Informix database is created by default  in 819/1252 codepage and á occupes 2 bytes, hence  select statement after update is is giving only 1 character. Since the table definition has varchar(2) IDS server is returning only 2 bytes(i.e only 1st char), after ALTER statement, SELECT statement returning 'áa' because now the name is VARCHAR(3) and returning total 3 bytes to client.
