have a look at khtmlpart.cpp:

bool KHTMLPart::setEncoding( const QString &name, bool override )
{
    d->m_encoding = name;
    d->m_haveEncoding = override;

    if( !m_url.isEmpty() ) {
        // reload document
        closeURL();
        KURL url = m_url;
        m_url = 0;
        d->m_restored = true;
        openURL(url);
        d->m_restored = false;
    }

    return true;
}

If you call setEncoding() immediately after openURL(), the page is supposed to 
be reloaded, but before the request can actually be issued, it gets aborted 
by closeURL(), then the cache policy gets changed and the request is 
re-issued with caching turned on.

I think the flag "d->m_restored" should only be changed if the current page is 
already completely loaded. This requires some additional logic in 
setEncoding(), however.
