In theory with a perl5.7.1-ish perl then the Encode module can cope
with non-escape encodings, though none of the Asian encodings are 
"compiled in" they should load.

The iso-2022-* escape encodings need writing (or stealing from Tcl/ICU
giconv or whatever). 

What Encode.pm needs is someone to try and use it "for real".
