I think the problem still persists in 54146.
For the following simple testcase, make sure the bit after echo looks like 
<<1/4 1/2 3/4>>

@echo off
chcp 1252
echo «¼½¾»
chcp 437
echo «¼½¾»
chcp 850
echo «¼½¾»
pause

Paste in Notepad, save in cp 1252.
Output in Windows (provided you use the Lucida Console font):

Active codepage: 1252
«¼½¾»
Active codepage: 437
½╝╜╛╗
Active codepage: 850
½╝¢¥╗

I have verified that this is correct.

Output in ReactOS (variable actually, but most commonly):

½+¢¥¬
½╝¢¥╗
½╝¢¥╗

I have mixed feelings about the Active codepage: nnn messages. I suspact that 
most batch files will do something like chcp 1252>nul so the point will be
moot.
