vacation-h3 drops the .vacation.msg without changing it's encoding to latin1. This is kinda bad on people who are using multiple languages and are using UTF-8 encoding. As the .vacation.msg ends up being dropped with whatever the default character encoding is on the server. This patch simply converts whatever that encoding is to latin1. As this is the format that the vacition program expects to find. The patch also converts back to the encoding of the site when viewing the vacation information.
