I've installed a (louder) warning. Someone can make it exit if they wish.

Currently if etc/charsets/ is not found at runtime no warning/error
is shown.  Not having that directory results in strange behavior, and we
have had a few instances of such problems reported to the list.

It would be great if some warning/error would be shown if etc/charsets/*
is not found.
