You can look in mklocale/data and colldef/data.
I doubt, that converter will be easy to implement, we have different
scheme.
If you'll write CP866 locale, please send me for review.
CP866 keyboard already exists.
BTW, I think CP866 is somewhat useless because RELCOM Internet uses koi8,
so you need in/out decoders for mail messages in this case. But
because CP866 is live standard, it is acceptable.
