Sorry for the delay.

Unicode characters without the nls option in bash-4.3.46 are still a 
problem. 


Correction: it was a stray patch in FreeBSD port that made HAVE_ICONV 
undefined. Without it iconv is detected fine without nls.

However, I believe this is a bug in bash that HAVE_ICONV is conditional 
on the presence of libiconv. You should make the behavior unconditional, 
remove the dependency on HAVE_ICONV, and fail the build when it is missing.
