Using utf-8 seemed like a good idea because of various nice properties
of UTF-8. Also, I didn't know about emacs-mule.
Feel free to change it to emacs-mule if that makes more sense. The
encoding used by this file is more or less internal to Emacs, and only
Emacs needs be able to process it. People who desperately want
another encoding can change it by customizing that variable.
I missed the response to this, I guess, and I notice that the latest version
still has utf-8. What was the reason not to use emacs-mule instead?
