That's certainly broken.  The entire point of having a cs_CZ.WIN-1250
locale (as opposed to cs_CZ.something-else) would be to specify a
codeset corresponding to WIN-1250.  Our code recognizes the spelling
"CP1250" for that.  It's possible there are other spellings we should
recognize, but "ANSI_X3.4-1968" is certainly not one.  As I said, that
just means ASCII, so it's completely useless for determining which
ASCII-superset encoding is wanted.
