Ok, now I remember about //TRANSLIT. The default choice of BSD iconv was 
to use transliteration by default so I followed this convention. And 
once we have it, it should be as complete as possible, imo. Personally, 
I would prefer making transliteration optional but that requires heavier 
changes to iconv.
