Just a quick note: I'd rather this be a user default value that we get
from NSUserDefaults. Perhaps GSInputMethodStyle or something similar.
The only reason GNUSTEP_STRING_ENCODING is an environment variable is
that GNUstep-Base needs it to initialize itself - and you would get a
recursive mess if it were a default value.
