New Revision: 254080
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/254080

Log:
  Our libc iconv (unlike gnu iconv and the citrus code in NetBSD) has a
  bypass mode when src == dst.  Unfortunately, there are tools in ports
  that pass byte streams through iconv to determine if the encodings
  are valid.  eg: gettext-0.18.3+.
  
  Disable the optimization and behave like the other implementations.
