Coding systems all have names that are lower-case. Interactively the
completion code will take care of the case conversion on input, but
programatically you'll have to downcase v before interning.
This will work for the Cyrillic-KOI8 language environment, and for a
few others where the language environment name matches the prefered
coding-system or an alias, but if you are looking for a more general
mechanism, I'd recommend using (car (get-language-info v 'coding-
priority)) as a more robust way to get the coding system from the
language environment. The downcase method will fail for language
environments like "Tajik", which specifes koi8-t as its prefered
coding-system (also "French", "German" etc which specify iso-latin-1).
