I followed up with another patch that fixes an obscure problem in a 
not-so-obscure Japanese encoding (SHIFT-JIS).  The encoding probably did 
not really work in 2.5.x (the test is skipped there, initial detection 
of the character set fails), but was broken further by the fix. :-)

I didn't check if Norihirio's patch broke it too, or it worked.
