Comment(by yoichi):

 This problem was talked in Japanese community.
 This issue is due to lack of Qt codec plug-in.
 OSGeo4w version has qt codec plugins at
 {OSGeo4w}/apps/qt4/plugins/codecs.
 But standalone version has no qt plugin about codecs.
 We addressed this issue by set the Qt codec plugins  at the folder
 {QGIS}/bin/qtplugins/codecs.

 To packeger, please include Qt plugins of codec to 1.5 new package.
