xgawk cannot read the user's locale because the
nl_langinfo(CODESET) is not properly implemented yet.
KIMURA Koichi suggested a solution on the mailing list

Libiconv has a subpackage named libcharset that contains a
lib/localcharset.c source for guessing the default charset
in several platforms, including some without
nl_langinfo(CODESET) available. The platform charset name is
normalized before reported.
