This will fix the problem on machines that weren't experiencing the iconv
problem before. But it won't fix the problem on say RH7 where the iconv byte
order is still swapped. I think the swap_iconv_u2n() function needs fixing,
but I don't know how to test it since I don't have access to say a RH6.2
machine.
Just to help me out some, does Abi/wv print "DOM: swapping iconv byte order
1 xxxx"
Thanks,
Dom
