ISO 2022 supports Unicode via the "incompatible encodings" control
sequence (I forget the exact name and escape sequence). I don't know
if Emacs's iso-2022-* coding systems support it, but it's not hard to
add in the unlikely case that you don't have it already.
IMO, a better way to do this would be to change the HELLO file to be a
Lisp library, and encode it in UTF-8. The table of greetings can
simply be wrapped into a string, and add a table of "languages we have
preferred fonts for" in Lisp.
