[bug #30172] Converting strings lossy results to different strings than on OS X

[Fred Kiefer]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #30172 (project gnustep):

GNUstep is doing the lossy conversion by using the translit flag of iconv.
The documentation for iconv states:
"When the string "//TRANSLIT" is appended to tocode, transliteration is
activated. This means that when a character cannot be represented in the
target character set, it can be approximated through one or several characters
that look similar to the original character."
This sounds just like the thing we want to do. And your example shows that
this conversion is really eager to provide the best possible transliteration.
