The following character set names are specified in the SQL standard and
therefore somewhat non-negotiable:
SQL_CHARACTER
GRAPHIC_IRV
LATIN1
ISO8BIT
UTF16
UTF8
UCS2
SQL_TEXT
SQL_IDENTIFIER
So we have to use LATIN1, even though it creates an inconsistency. We
discussed this a while ago during the last great renaming, I think.
Btw., I think ISO8BIT is the correct name for what we call SQL_ASCII, but I
haven't analyzed that in detail, yet.
