windres as shipped in mingw32-binutils with ubuntu 8.04 and debian "testing",
and as built from 2.19.1 sources by me on both those systems, fails to detect
that iconv is available and so uses the dumb path converting utf-8 that inserts
a null byte after very character -- which works for ascii only. I've fixed the
problem locally with a patch that changes how the presence of iconv is tested.
I've also written a simple shell script that verifies the fix. I assume once I
commit this bug I'll have an opportunity to add these as attachments.
