Ok, here is the modified encoding table (column1 is the standard name,
2 is our "official" name, and 3 is alias). If there's no objection, I
will change them.

ASCII SQL_ASCII
UTF-8 UNICODE UTF_8
MULE-INTERNAL MULE_INTERNAL
ISO-8859-1 LATIN1 ISO_8859_1
ISO-8859-2 LATIN2 ISO_8859_2

ISO-8859-4 LATIN4 ISO_8859_4
ISO-8859-5 ISO_8859_5
ISO-8859-6 ISO_8859_6
ISO-8859-7 ISO_8859_7
