It seems like there's more here than meets the eye.

Emacs in CVS can use UTF-8, UTF-16-BE and UTF-16-LE as well.  I tried
them, but the Windows clipboard viewer still shows garbage when I
type "C-x RET X ENCODING RET M-w" (where ENCODING is one of the UTF-*
encodings mentioned above) with Cyrillic characters in the region.

What is it that Emacs doesn't do right here?  Because if I copy
Cyrillic text from the Explorer on the same system, the clipboard
viewer does show it correctly.
