1) I know this is an old bug and
2) Since a google search for "GSM 03.38 iconv" yields this page as #1 hit, and
it doesn't solve my problem, here's a DIRTY-fix with sed instead of iconv.
sed
"y/\o00\o01\o02\o03\o04\o05\o06\o07\o10\o11\o13\o14\o16\o17\o20\o21\o22\o23\o24\o25\o26\o27\o30\o31\o32\o34\o35\o37\o44\o100/@£$¥èéùìòÇØøÅåΔ_ΦΓΛΩΠΨΣΘΞÆæɤ¡/"
The codes came from http://www.csoft.co.uk/sms/character_sets/gsm.htm
In case HTML does bad things to the above, see
http://arno.homelinux.org/files/gsm03.38-convert.sh
I get SMS via SIP from a chinese box with zarro documentation, but the above
WORKSFORME ^-^
best regards

I don't want to go this route. From what I heard, there are a myriad of these
"encodings". Just like in the olden ASCII days, everybody picks a "standard"
and then modifies it slightly to their own needs. You can collect these
converteers in a third-party package, if you want.

For what it's worth, GSM has multiple issues:
- GSM is not always in its 7bits packed form (for example, when used in SMPP or
UCP/EMI messages), which means that you need two flavors.
- GSM is often used with the latin1 extension (and I know some other are also
defined) which adds another layer of alternatives.
- the 7bit packed encoding makes it rather unsuitable for iconv interfaces which
assumes that codepoint sizes are multiple of 8 bits: there is no way to push
14bits only for example, you can only transcode 8 gsm codepoints at a time, or
you need to _very_ carefuly craft the data you send (and hence know how the
iconv state works) for it to be useful.
- finally in GSM '\0' is ascii '@', which is a PITA, but arguably not relevant
to iconv.
All in all, I'm not sure that iconv and GSM are a good match.

It's an ETSI standard. The latest version is
ETSI TS 100 900 V7.2.0 (1999-07)
and can be downloaded from here
http://smstools.meinemullemaus.de/GSM_03.38_Specification.pdf
You can also get it from ETSI, but you have to register
http://webapp.etsi.org/workprogram/Report_WorkItem.asp?WKI_ID=6821
Further there is some perl code available
http://kobesearch.cpan.org/htdocs/perl/GSM0338.html
I'm not sure about the legal issues.
