thanks, I've seen that. Nor we can deduce mime-charset with
current-language-environment's coding-system's property.

IMHO most Linux cyrillic emacsers really preferred koi8-r.
Would it better to change
the default cons (at characters.el)
(cyrillic-iso8859-5 . cyrillic-iso-8bit)
to  
(cyrillic-iso8859-5 . cyrillic-koi8)
according to your advice?

Maybe such setting should be
done at emacs building/configuration time (e.g thru locale variables value)?
