The default chartype (e.g. for string constants in PBC) is currently unicode with utf32 encoding.We should probe and set the default at configure time. For most folks currently, it should be USASCII or (perhaps) Latin1. I don't think we need to go full-out Unicode to start with, at least not for now. (Though I would like to get Unicode and Shift-JIS transcoding, at the least, sorted out reasonably soon)
Can someone comment on this?
In some debug sessions I saw a lot of string_compare -> string_transcode cased by this default.
