--- Comment #14 from Steffen Nurpmeso <steffen at sdaoden dot eu> ---
P.P.S.: sorry for the noise!
But now, in order to deal with that (as the GNU approach has its merits,
really), i downloaded GNU libiconv, and in wchar_to_loop_convert() i see

     size_t res = unicode_loop_convert(&wcd->parent,
                                        &inptr,&inleft,
                                        &bufptr,&bufleft);
      if (res == (size_t)(-1)) {
        if (errno == EILSEQ)
          /* Invalid input. */

And so i stop because i wholeheartly agree.

I hope it is ok to assume that matching __GNU_LIBRARY__ and _LIBICONV_VERSION
(unfortunately this is all compile-time only) is all the way to go to get
EILSEQ upon output conversion error?

Thank you.
