The string literal "ISO-8859-1" appears in APR and log4cxx source code. For
example, from apr-1.2.7/misc/unix/charset.c:
APR_DECLARE(const char*) apr_os_default_encoding (apr_pool_t *pool)
{
#ifdef __MVS__
# ifdef __CODESET__
return __CODESET__;
# else
return "IBM-1047";
# endif
#endif
if ('}' == 0xD0) {
return "IBM-1047";
}
if ('{' == 0xFB) {
return "EDF04";
}
if ('A' == 0xC1) {
return "EBCDIC"; /* not useful */
}
if ('A' == 0x41) {
return "ISO-8859-1"; /* not necessarily true */
}
return "unknown";
}
Also, in log4cxx/src/charsetencoder.cpp:
CharsetEncoderPtr CharsetEncoder::getEncoder(const std::string& charset) {
if (StringHelper::equalsIgnoreCase(charset, "US-ASCII", "us-ascii") ||
StringHelper::equalsIgnoreCase(charset, "ISO646-US", "iso646-US") ||
StringHelper::equalsIgnoreCase(charset, "ANSI_X3.4-1968",
"ansi_x3.4-1968")) {
return new USASCIICharsetEncoder();
} else if (StringHelper::equalsIgnoreCase(charset, "ISO-8859-1",
"iso-8859-1") ||
StringHelper::equalsIgnoreCase(charset, "ISO-LATIN-1",
"iso-latin-1")) {
return new ISOLatinCharsetEncoder();
} else if (StringHelper::equalsIgnoreCase(charset, "UTF-8", "utf-8")) {
return new UTF8CharsetEncoder();
} else if (StringHelper::equalsIgnoreCase(charset, "UTF-16BE",
"utf-16be")
|| StringHelper::equalsIgnoreCase(charset, "UTF-16", "utf-16")) {
return new UTF16BECharsetEncoder();
} else if (StringHelper::equalsIgnoreCase(charset, "UTF-16LE",
"utf-16le")) {
return new UTF16LECharsetEncoder();
}
#if defined(_WIN32)
throw IllegalArgumentException(charset);
#else
return new APRCharsetEncoder(charset.c_str());
#endif
}
Are these files generated by configure scripts/ant build files? It doesn't
seem like they are...

Unfortunately, aliases are within the domain of iconv.
The question is, where did it pull out "ISO-8859-1" from as the default
locale on your box? If *that* is from apr-util, we need to unwind where
it was resolved. If that was an envvar set on your login, well, that would
be called shooting oneself in ones foot.
