Nevertheless: is e.g. ISO 8859-2 character set referenced the same way under different platforms (in the new concept), or would the new codepage number contain different values depending on the host platform? Does libiconv allow referencing the character sets using some numeric identifier at all? If yes, where are these identifiers defined? As an example, MS Windows addresses ISO 8859-2 as codepage number 28592 whereas OS/2 uses codepage number 912.
