Re: [bug-gnu-libiconv] libiconv-1.15

I like what you did with libtool (or is it in libtool-2.4.6 and doing 
this automagically) - namely creating a new $prefix/lib/libiconv.a with 
copies of the existing AIX legacy libiconv.a members (shr.o, shr4.o 
(32-bit) and shr_64.o (64-bit)).

There is a danger for packagers - as myself: the new archive gets the 
shr*.o file of the packaging system and not necessarily one as new as 
the system the pre-packaged version gets installed on.

IMPORTANT: this is much better than before!

Before in "%post" install scripts the AIX legacy members get appended - 
now they will be updated and position is preserved.

Just took me a while to find what was happening (guess I should have 
looked for the CHANGELOG first :) )
