That's probably what the kernel thinks. If you look at the NLS stuff in the kernel, it uses "utf8" instead of the usual "UTF-8" syntax, which, according to the never-incorrect archives on Wikipedia, states is the official name. I might be all wet, but that's the only place that I'm familiar with that uses "utf8". -- Bill "Lost a character set, has he? How embarassing. How embarassing."
