I don't know if there's a DOS version that supports cp858 (maybe the
just-released FreeDOS will?), but I see no harm in adding this
support.

codepage.el can support _any_ ISO-8859 character set. The target
character set is given by the `charset' property of the symbol that
holds the decoding table. Here's an example (watch the call to
setplist):
(defvar cp855-decode-table
[
255 133 129 131 135 137 139 141 143 145 147 149 151 240 153 155
161 163 236 173 167 169 234 244 184 190 199 209 211 213 215 221

"Table for converting ISO-8859-5 characters into codepage 855 glyphs.")
(setplist 'cp855-decode-table
'(charset cyrillic-iso8859-5 language "Cyrillic-ISO" offset 160))
