On Windows I'd expect the default encoding to either be `cp-1252` or `utf-8`.

Setting it to `utf-8` in the MozillaBuild profile would have side effects on tools that do use the system encoding (I assumed this, but checked with :glandium to confirm).

I don't think there's a better way than explicitly setting the encoding to handle a particular case.
