Thank you, John!
I've just tried it for HTMLization of Japanese Handbook and
confirmed all HTML files have META tag as follows

  <HEAD>
  <TITLE>FreeBSD handbook</TITLE>
  <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=EUC-JP">
  </HEAD>.

But, RFC2070 says:

   In any document, it is possible to include an indication of the
   encoding scheme like the following, as early as possible within the
   HEAD of the document:               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type"
     CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-2022-JP">

So, I think that inserting META tag before TITLE tag is more
better :-)
