Follow-up Comment #7, bug #55609 (project libiconv):
> If I make a patch, could it be accepted?
No. I explained the reasons already.
The patch that you propose would encourage the receiver of an UTF-16 encoded
text to ignore the BOM and treat the remaining text as little-endian encoded.
This is not desirable.
