Please back it out from both fonts and termcap. There is _no_ ACS graphics 
in the ISO 15 specs, check it by yourself. By such commit you confuse 
people to use non-portable characters in their documents.

If you want combined fonts, name them clearly as combined, something like
iso15+acs-8x8.fnt
the same about termcap entry for combined fonts, name it to clearly 
indicating additional prefix.

And please never ever touch standards area, they are holy cow.
