 R has long since wanted iconv support, although there was an option to
 disable it. That option has now been removed, and R '''must''' have iconv.
 However, there is junk left over in R's spkg-install which tries to
 disable iconv, and reports it is doing so.

 It likewise tries to do that same on OS X.
