You are assuming a bit much of your readers.

What exactly are you doing? Is it a value, a value label, or perhaps a 
variable name. How do the results of read.spss look on the R side? How 
did you apply iconv and utf8ToInt? What is your locale?

I mean, we could try and guess all those details, but you are the one 
with the hard info, and the motivation...
