I don't see any reason that the behavior of iconv should be dependent on the
locale in which it's invoked.

See http://osdir.com/ml/linux.lfs.devel/2006-01/msg00678.html, where the maintainer of libiconv writes in response to a similar report about transliterations:

In contrast to that, libiconv bases its decisions only upon
the source and destination character sets.

This is true, and is actually a problem with libiconv. Because for example
transliteration from Cyrillic to Latin scripts has to be locale dependent.
