GNU libiconv provides an iconv implementation, for use on systems which
don't have a decent one.

New in 1.14:

* The 'iconv' program now produces its output as soon as it can. It no longer
  unnecessarily waits for more input.
* Updated the GB18030 converter to map 25 characters to code points that have
  been to Unicode since 2000, rather than to code points in the Private Use
  Area.
* Updated the BIG5-HKSCS converter. The old BIG5-HKSCS converter is renamed to
  BIG5-HKSCS:2004. A new converter BIG5-HKSCS:2008 is added. BIG5-HKSCS is now
  an alias for BIG5-HKSCS:2008.
* Fixed a bug in the conversion to wchar_t.
* Fixed a small bug in the CP1258 converter.
