Perhaps we make "Build CJK encodings?" a Configure question?
We could determine default based on locale, or (as I once
did for a UK/USA paper size choice) by TZ.
Doing so we will have again Perl and something like JPerl, as
we allways had. Close to 100% of my Perl coding is realated to
CJK and I don't like the idea of having two Perls again. Aka,
I don't like to tell some customers etc. to reinstall Perl with
"CJK" support.
Well, it wouldn't be "reinstall", it would be more like "get
more modules from CPAN". But I agree: we shouldn't diverge.
As a heavy user of Perl I just wanted to tell my objections.
