see xap_EncodingManager.h
At the moment this function returns true if the encoding is utf-8. It
is used currently only on Unix to determine whether we need to do
ucs2 -> native conversion before drawing on screen. As far as I am
concerned, it could return true for ucs2 as well, if that is needed
elsewhere, all I need to know is whether the current locale is
limited to 256 characters or not.
