For the record, the following is the intersection of the IANA-
registered encodings supported by JDK 1.4.2_08 (Sun Solaris Sparc;
other vendors such as Apple and IBM add encodings) and Python 2.4.3.
The list does not change when intersected by the encodings supported
by Opera 9 and Firefox 2. (Safari doesn't list all the encodings it
supports in the UI and I don't have IE.)
