On a US keyboard, Shift+"/" is "?", and Ctrl+"?" is itself a valid
control character combination, producing ^? (i.e. 0x7F).

I hate to prolong this relatively uninteresting thread, but I
don't see how you addressed my point, which is that the table at
http://code.google.com/p/mintty/wiki/Keycodes#Ctrl indicates 
that one can generate U+009F with the "/", Ctrl, and Shift keys...
+-----+------+------------+
| Key | Ctrl | Ctrl+Shift |
+-----+------+------------+
|  /  |  ^_  |   U+009F   |
+-----+------+------------+
...but this doesn't seem to be the case, at least with a 
standard US keyboard.
