/*
 * This is a quick-and-dirty emulator of the nl_langinfo(CODESET)
 * function defined in the Single Unix Specification for those systems
 * (FreeBSD, etc.) that don't have one yet. It behaves as if it had
 * been called after setlocale(LC_CTYPE, ""), that is it looks at
 * the locale environment variables.
 *
 * http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/langinfo.h.html
 *
 * Please extend it as needed and suggest improvements to the author.
 * This emulator will hopefully become redundant soon as
 * nl_langinfo(CODESET) becomes more widely implemented.
 *
 * Since the proposed Li18nux encoding name registry is still not mature,
 * the output follows the MIME registry where possible:

 *   http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets
 *
 * A possible autoconf test for the availability of nl_langinfo(CODESET)
 * can be found in
