In the string_abstraction2 branch, I'd added functionality to translate
some common EMACS names for encodings into the proper linunistring names
for encodings, but, that hasn't made its way into master.  For latin-1,
the name libunistring expects is ISO-8859-1.  So it was my bad for not
changing latin-1 to iso-8859-1 when I merged it from string_abstraction2
to master.

I haven't put the Emacs aliases into master yet because I want that list
to be in scheme code in ice-9 instead of in C code.  I haven't really
thought through the details of how that should be done.

Thanks,
