Well, NSYMBOL(NATIONAL) forces on DBCS; for NSYMBOL(DBCS) you
can still have, I think, DBCS or NODBCS.

Tom Ross told me because there are a lot programs in Asia
using DBCS they wanted to support having DBCS strings
embedded in Unicode strings.

I was never totally convinced that is a good idea, but
that's what I was told.
