Bug description:  iconv removes tidles  when converting from utf to shift_jis

Description:
------------
inconv does not seem to convert single space tildes from utf8 to
shift_jis

Please bear in mind that shift_jis tildes are not where one would expect
them to be. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift-JIS
"The single-byte characters 0x00 to 0x7F match the ASCII encoding, except
for a yen sign at 0x5C and an overline at 0x7E in place of the ASCII
character set's backslash and tilde respectively."

If I use //IGNORE then the tildes just disappear. If I use //TRANSLIT the
bug is even worse - all of the string after and including the first the ~
disappears.

There was also a double byte tilde problem in the past, but this is
different. 



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?PHP 
$conv_str = iconv('utf-8','shift-jis'.'//IGNORE','where are the (~) (~)
tildes?'); 
echo ($conv_str);
?>



Expected result:
----------------
where are the (~) (~) tildes?

the above in shift_jist using //IGNORE



Actual result:
--------------
where are the () () tildes?

using //IGNORE and

where are the (

using //TRANSLIT
