[bug-gnu-libiconv] UTF-8 replacement character cannot be transliterated into ISO-8859-1

[Vincent Lefevre]

As shown by the attached script, the UTF-8 replacement character
cannot be transliterated into ISO-8859-1 (tested under Mac OS X).
This problem doesn't occur under Linux with iconv from glibc 2.6.1.

Under Mac OS X (with libiconv built via MacPorts), the attached script
gives:

iconv (GNU libiconv 1.11)

while under Linux, I get:

as expected.
