I'll take a closer look at it later - probably tomorrow evening.

I am presuming a iconv->g_iconv change would mean eliminating libiconv
from our dependency list (using glib instead)? In such case, we have
glib already, so it doesn't seem like an issue to me as long as it
doesn't break windows further. (granted, my influence in such decisions
is limited, but thought I'd add my question/comment) At this point I
think trunk only, or maybe even a branch, not 2.6 which is what Marc is
working on.
