Once the Unicode text I/O changes are integrated into HEAD, I'll work
on making Haskeline use it when built with ghc>=6.12.  As a result,
Haskeline shouldn't need to explicitly link against iconv when built
with new ghc versions; so this patch will no longer be necessary.
(The change will also probably remove the dependency on utf8-string.)
