Description:
------------
The following documents says that the "auto" encoding for
mbstring always expands to "ASCII, JIS, UTF-8, EUC-JP, SJIS".
But according to ext/mbstring/mbstring.c,
"auto" actually expands to php_mb_default_identify_list_*
which the current mbstring.language value corresponds to.
  doc-en/en/reference/mbstring/functions/mb-convert-encoding.xml
  doc-en/en/reference/mbstring/functions/mb-detect-encoding.xml
  doc-en/en/reference/mbstring/functions/mb-detect-order.xml
  doc-en/en/reference/mbstring/ini.xml

The correct behavior is only described in:
  doc-en/en/reference/mbstring/supported-encodings.xml
which says:
  If "auto" is set, it is expanded to
  the list of encodings defined per the NLS.
  For instance, if the NLS is set to Japanese,
  the value is assumed to be
  "ASCII,JIS,UTF-8,EUC-JP,SJIS".

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
