Supporting CP932 as a charset in its > own right might be worth considering though, especially as that's the > standard charset on Japanese Cygwin 1.5. I applied a patch which handles the characters 0x5c and 0cfe differently if the charset is set to "SJIS", and I applied Nayuta's patch to newlib's loadlocale to allow "CP932" as charset. So there will be a choice in Cygwin 1.7.2.
