In INSTALLATION, --disable-japanese-utf8 doc is backward (says it
enables the feature).

I think these things would better be described something like:

- disable Japanese UTF-8 logic for documents encoded in euc-jp and shift_jis
- enable Chinese UTF-8 logic for documents encoded in euc-cn

By naming the supported character set encodings, it doesn't oversell
itself against other existing or future encodings.  (Of course if this
code were later adapted to other encodings, they would have to be added
to this snippet of doc...)
