Hm, yeah.  Probably this is because JOHAB was first installed as being
a server-allowed encoding, and it was only later we realized that wasn't
OK.  This table must've been missed while changing it.

Cross-checking the other entries, I notice SHIFT_JIS_2004 is also not
listed in that table ... we've been a little sloppy there.

Thanks for noticing!
