Default codepage and iocharset in fat32 aka msdos filesystem

Hello,
I am from Poland.
I am using Windows 8.1 64-bit and OpenBSD-current amd64.
When I used Gnu/Linux I mounted fat32 partitions
with these options:
iocharset=iso8859-2,codepage=852
However OpenBSD's mount tells me:
Code:
mount -t msdos  -o codepage=852 /dev/sd0f /mnt/partycjaFat/
mount_msdos: -o codepage: option not supported
and
Code:
mount -t msdos  -o iocharset=iso8859-2 /dev/sd0f /mnt/partycjaFat/
mount_msdos: -o iocharset: option not supported
1. What codepage is used by default in FAT32 filesystem created
and mounted in OpenBSD?
2. Is there a way to use other codepage in OpenBSD?
If answer to 2 is no, then:
3. Is there way to force Windows to use different codepage
for that FAT32 partition?

I have posted this question also to misc mailing list
a few minutes ago with the subject the same as
Title of this Thread.

So what happens if you simply attempt to mount with the command:

$ mount -t msdos /dev/sd0f /mnt/partycjaFat/

It will mount filesystem. Problem is after that with filenames.
I have added one file whose name contains characters from polish language.
It should look like these

...which is a character support issue, not a problem with mounting.
