The dinosaur has only been thoroughly tested with
enable-multibyte-characters untouched (that is, t) and no --unibyte.
It should, of course, work in unibyte mode as well, but there are
certain things that I have yet to get to work right, involving copying
strings from one buffer to another, when one of the buffers are
multibyte and the other is not.

For now (until these glitches are stamped out), the only way to run
pgnus is in multibyte mode.
