I believe the spec just demands USAGE on the underlying function for
the TRANSLATE case, and I don't see why it should be different for
CONVERT.  (In principle, if we didn't use a C-only API, you could
just call the underlying function directly; so there's little point
in having protection restrictions different from that case.)
