Looks like the  charset.alias file from libiconv needs to be completed
with info about what to do with 646...

netbsd does not have the issue because it does not use gnu libiconv...

Just adding a line like:

646     ISO-8859-1

to /usr/local/lib/charset.alias should fix things (even though it's
slightly incorrect)
