One further annoying update: the Z39.50 server is working great with the indexdata packages, but now z39.50 import of records with accents winds up with either corrupted accented characters (they look fine in the MARC editor, but once you hit "import" they get corrupted) or a refusal to import them at all.

I tried rolling back to the indexdata packages from a few years back (first 5.10.2-1.indexdata, then 5.5.1-1.indexdata - November 2014) but the z39.50 corrupted accented character problem persisted. This latter problem might be able to be solved in our ZClient module with a judicious encode() or decode() call--I'll look into that--but in the short term perhaps the best option is to isolate the Z39.50 server environment on a separate VM or in a docker container so it can use yaz5, while the Z39.50 import functionality can use yaz4 on the main Evergreen server.
