I think we're ok.  The hard part is already done -- all the PHONY_ICONV
support code and typedefs and indirections.  This last bit is just
tinkering with the configury a little to get a decent result by default.

FWIW, all this current change means is that Solaris users will see
escape sequences more often than they might want to.
