We had discussed doing this. (See the list archives.) The issue is in 
ssphys, the program that converts the binary VSS files to XML. It's 
hard-coded to claim the encoding of the files. You can edit the line that 
installs the encoding in the XML file to your desired encoding. A patch to 
make this a command line parameter would be welcome.
