TestRubyOptions#test_encoding fails. This failure depends on cmd code page.
With chcp 932 the test passes, but with chcp 65001, 1252 and so on the test fails.

[ 9/38] TestRubyOptions#test_encoding = 0.04 s

1. Failure:
   test_encoding(TestRubyOptions) [C:/Users/hiroshi/work/ruby/test/ruby/test_rubyop
   tions.rb:202]:
   <[]> expected but was
   <[""\xE3\x81\x82""]>.

This test depends on STDIN encoding which is determined system locale.
And LANG=C is set when invoking ruby.

https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/trunk/test/ruby/envutil.rb#L48

But LANG doesn't affect locale with trunk ruby on Windows by the following commit.
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/5a2758ed

So test results would differ according to cmd code page.

I've attached a patch to work with not 932 code page.
