Using -k{} as an override.

So you can do 'cvs add -k{SJIS}', commit that, then do 'cvs up 
-k{ARABIC}' (although you're not likely to get sane results with that 
particular transformation).

You can use anything that the local iconv library supports.  The Win32 
one doesn't have EBCDIC encodings though so be careful if you use those.

(btw. this *should* work.. it's not something I've tried at all since 
the initial testing).
