Bill,
I noticed one problem with the xlate functions. In apr_xlate_open(), if
APU_HAS_APR_ICONV, the function check_sbcs() is called on line #293. The
problem is that the check_sbcs() function is dependent on the iconv() functions
which would only be defined if APU_HAVE_ICONV which appears to be mutually
exclusive. Therefore if you defined APU_HAS_APR_ICONV and were using the
apr_iconv library, the code would fail to link because the check_sbcs()
function is not defined.

No, because apr_iconv is a complete library.
You should modify apr_xlate to plug in an alternate library.
Note one bugaboo... our API assures that partial conversion is always
possible. The native APIs on Win32 (not counting the mlang com level
interface) do not, so Win32 couldn't use it's own. Hopefully, that's not
true on Netware and you should be able to plug into apr_xlate seamlessly.
