iconv?

Has it ever been considered to (optionally) use the iconv interface for
character set conversion instead of rolling our own?  It seems to be a lot
more flexible, has pluggable conversion modules (depending on the
implementation), supports more character sets.  It seems to be available
on quite a few systems, too.

I have not checked iconv seriously since it's not very portable among
our supported platforms.

Just FYI, in the mutt readme:

- Mutt needs an implementation of the iconv API for character set conversions.  A free one can be found under the
followingURL:
 
   http://clisp.cons.org/~haible/packages-libiconv.html

Count bsdi as yes.  I have it working here.  Compiled fine.

OK. Can people run iconv --list to see what kind of encodings are
supported on each platform?

My iconv (verison 2.1.3 on Linux) shows followings:
