I've already talked to somebody about this.
If we're going to embrace glib we should probably
in the long run alter our UT_iconv and friends to
use glib's code just to have all our conversions
uniform. The tricky bit will be making sure the
build system for glib and the one for AbiWord
decide to use the same iconv.
