Could you please add a breakpoint in this function and step through
it? I really would like to understand what goes on here.
The problem, as explained by the reference attached to Stefan's email,
is that NetBSD's iconv does not support the //TRANSLIT option that
GNUstep uses to implement lossy transformations (as you also can see
from the backtrace provided by Riccardo). I have no idea how we could
fix that in GNUstep, but on the other hand there is an easy solution
for Riccardo: Just install the gnu libiconv package on NetBSD and make
sure it gets used instead of the default one.
I tried to install the gnu libiconv and reconfigure base and now it
works without warnings.
Is this the only choice however?
The other chance you have is to modify the code in -[NSString(PantomimeStringExtensions) stringFromModifiedUTF7]. No idea why this is converting the hard coded strings in such a complicated way.
