Oops, found one bug, where converting to UTF-8 for all Unicode
encodings did not also convert the fencoding.
Here's an updated patch. New fully-patched files also have been
uploaded as indicated above.
I'll probably give it about another week to collect comments before
submitting to Bram if there are no issues.
