Hi!
i've come across Kazuhiro's patch from 2000-07-04 dealing with
AnsIToOem conversion. What do you y=think about conditionalizing this
code? something like CYGWIN=oem_apis or CYGWIN=oem ? In russian
windows oem codepage is 866, while ansi is 1251. People who had
scripts written before cygwin have switched to ansi now got unreadable
messages. if you think that adding yet another option to CYGWIN env.
variable won't be too bad, i'll submit the patch.
btw, what's the reason of calling OemToCharA in read_sd (like it was
before Kazuhiro's patch)? Does GetFileSecurity not honor
SetApisToOem()?

ps. yeah, i know i've been a bit slow to notice this change :) that's
because i don't use much cyrillic.
