No, not quite - that has the problem I was just discussing with
Corinna.  The ideal (and achievable) choice for a Cygwin debugger
running a non-Cygwin program is the system codeset.  This is a common
scenario, at least for me; I do it all the time.

I can't promise when I'll get to it, not with a release coming up at
work, but if no one else does, I'll try to; this would be useful to
me.
